Intro: G  D  C (x2) 

       G  D  Em  C   

       G  D  C 
 
G               D 
I thought that leaving you 
Em         C 
Was what I had to do 
 G             D 
That town was just too small 
 Em 
For someone with big dreams 
           G                   D 
But these city side walks and busy streets  
       Em                    C 
Ain't what I thought they'd mean to me hell 
G            D               C 
I ain't had one good nights sleep  
               D                   C 
There's not a second that I ain't missing you  
      D                    C 
Your smiling face or your baby blues  
    Am          Bm               C 
My heart keeps telling me it's time  
    D 
For me to get back to you  
 
Chorus 1: 
            G                      C 
I'm taking the high road back to the place  
                 G                       C 
Where there are mountains and wide open space 
     Am                    C            D 
Get back to where there's everything I love  
                G                    C 
Cause it's all wrong what we're going through  
              G                     C 
I've been to hell and back without you  
            Am                  C 
Yeah we're meant to be it took this to see  
      D                    C 
It's time to make things right  
                      G    D  Em  C  G  D  C 
Get me back in your life  
 
 
         G                D 
I can't seem to find one familiar face  
         Em                    C 
It seems no one cares in this cold cold place  
G                  D                                   
God what I'd give to smell  
                 Em 
Those green cornfields  
             G                  D 
I'd give my soul to hear those crickets sing  
 Em               C 
Hold you on your mama's porch swing  
 G              D                      C 
Kiss you down by Miller's Lake like the time when we first met  
               D                      C 
There's not a heartbeat I ain't been missing you  
      D                     C 
Your smiling face or those baby blues  
    Am          Bm               C 
My heart keeps telling me it's time  
    D 
For me to get back to you   
 
Chorus 2: 
            G                      C 
I'm taking the high road back to the place  
                 G                       C 
Where there are mountains and wide open space 
     Am                    C            D 
Get back to where there's everything I love  
                G                    C 
Cause it's all wrong what we're going through  
              G                     C 
I've been to hell and back without you  
            Am                C 
Yeah we're meant to be honey you and me  
          D                    C 
Now it's time to make things right  
                      G    D  Em  C  G  D  C 
Get me back in your life  
 

G  D  Em  C  G  D  C 
 
D                    C 
I can't take no more missing you  
      D                    C 
Your smiling face or those baby blues  
   Am         Bm           C 
Tonight I'll drive 'til I cross that line  
    D 
For me to get back to you
