1st Verse: 
 
G5 
The moon is off my shoulder, 
    C5 
the sun is in my eyes. 
G5 
Almost to my hometown, 
     C5 
it's just another mile 
A5          G5             A5           G5    
Memories surround me of an old familier time. 
A5              G5          A5                    A5 
Life was simple then, when your love was mine.

There's a cool wind on the desert tonight. 
      G5               C5           A5              A5 
I can almost see your golden hair flying in the moonlight. 
G5 B5          C5 
Ooh, it was a restless kind of free, 
             A5         A5       G5 
when it was, you and forever and me.  
 
2nd Verse 

I pulled off the highway on your side of town 

Make the turn past the railroad tracks as the sun goes down. 

I remember how you would wait by the front porch light. 

You were always ready to take a midnight ride. 
 
Bridge: 
E5                         A5           A5 
Sometimes love is lost and never found. 
           G5             C5             A5 
But I just had to see if you're still around.
