G5 : 2xxxxx (easy) or 2xx232 (harder)

***It also sounds good to play C5 G5 E5 D5 instead, but this is not how it is in the actual song.

Intro: G5   G5   G5   G5
   
       G5   G5   G5   G5   (x2)

G5        G5         E5             D5
Backpack on my back, walking down a railroad track 
G5                 G5      E5      D5
   Oh, I've been wanting to see you 
G5             G5               E5              D5
Eyes upon the rows of trees, an endless sea in front of me 
G5                 G5      E5      D5
   Oh, I've been longing to see you 


G5           G5         E5           D5
You've been on my mind, talk about a lonely time 
G5                 G5        E5      D5
   You don't know how much I need you 
G5                G5           E5             D5
Once I feel the downy snow, the only home I've ever known 
G5                 G5        E5      D5
   I'll hold you close when I see you 


C5                          D5      C5
   There's no way I could let you go 
                        D5       C5
There's no way I could let you go 
                        D5      C5
There's no way I could let you go 


        G5
And it seems to me 
         C5   
We sing soft and low 
        G5                  C5 
Such a sweet hello...... 


[ G5 G5 E5 D5 ] x2


G5       G5          E5            D5
Backpack on my back, standing on a railroad track 
G5              G5        E5      D5
   It won't be long 'til I see you 
G5               G5              E5             D5
Why do I always have to leave the only one I'll ever need? 
G5              G5           E5         D5
   Now hold me close while I breathe you


C5                          D5      C5
   There's no way I could let you go 
                        D5      C5
There's no way I could let you go 
                        D5      C5
There's no way I could let you go 


        G5
And it seems to me 
         C5   
We sing soft and low 
        G5                   C5 
Such a sweet hello......

   Oh, I've been longing to see you 



G5          G5         E5            D5
You've been on my mind, talk about a lonely time // There's no way I could let you go
G5                 G5        E5 (hold)
   You don't know how much I need you
