E
It’s been way too long
         A                    E
since I held you darlin in my arms
                 B7       A                E
A thousand more miles and I’ll be by your side
            B7        E
I ache for you every night

E
It feels so wrong
    A              E
to leave you all alone
                     B7
I’ll settle down someday
     A                 E
For now I’ve got to stray
                      B7           E
I’m still yours even when I’m not home

 A                                    E
Tired, dirty and bruised by I won’t sway
A                                E
Only time and distance stand in my way
      A                    B
I’d drive all through the night
                  E
just to see your jade eyes shimmer in
     A
the morning light
E
I love you darlin
B7          E
I’m almost home
