Bb9                    C
It's been awhile and a million miles
           Dm
Since I've seen the sun shine on your face
Bb9                    C
A long time coming but now I'm 
             Dm
runnin' back home
Bb9                        C
The southern pines and the neon 
                Dm
signs and every backroad between the two
Bb9                    C
Out of sight dont mean out of mind 
      Dm
to me


Bb    C       Dm
Carry on this way
    F                       Bb
I'm singin' to you from somewhere 
       C             Dm
tonight am I getting through?
       F
(Is it getting through)
Bb         C                 Dm
I choke on every word and it never
          F
comes out right
              Bb
This would be so much easier
C                Dm   F
standing next to you


Bb9                      C
I didn't know what I was lookin' for 
      Dm
But I found it when I took your hand
    Bb                   C
The cheshire smile still cuts me down 
       Dm
to the bone
Bb9                    C
Preacher says it's for rich or poor
         Dm
We see a lot of the latter of two
          Bb9              C
I've been gone so long I'm afraid I 
                Dm
might be losin' you
