[Intro]
C

[Verse 1]
C            Em D
If today was not an
    C            Em7
endless highway
        Dm7 G
If tomorrow wasn't a
  C
 such crooked trail
       Dm7    Em  G
And if forever if it
               C
wasn’t such a long time
Dm7            G
Lonesome would mean
               C       Dm7
nothing to me at all

[Verse 2]
        G
Only if my own true
          C
love was waiting
Dm7 G               C
If I could hear her heart
softly pounding
       Dm    Em  G7 C
And if she’s only lying
 by me
Dm7        G      C
I'd lie in my bed once
again

[Verse 3]
C              Em
There's beauty in the
   Dm      C
 silver singing river
Em             Dm
There's beauty in the
     G           C
sunrise in the sky
    Dm
But there’s nothing
      F
 in a world
            G
 that could ever
          C
match the beauty
       Dm7     G
That I remember in
    C
 my true love's eyes

[Verse 4]
         Dm7   G
You know only, only my
                 C       Dm7
 little girl was walting
                G
If I could only hear
           C
her heart softly pounding
       Dm7    F
And if she’s, only
  G      C
 she was lying by me
      Dm7
Yeah, I'd lie in
    G7    C
my bed once again

[Chorus]
Dm7        G
I'm goin', gonna go
                     C
 where the sun keeps shinin'
                    C7
Through the pourin' rain
Dm7       G
I’m goin' where the weather
          C  C7
 suits my clothes
Dm7
I'm gonna hit off
          G7
the northeast
        C
winds back down on a
         C7
summer breeze
Dm                G
I'm gonna trip me over
                  C
 the ocean like a stone
C
I’m goin' home, goin' home
C
Yeah, goin' home
