[D] _ [E] _ [G] _ [Am] _ _ I'm [D] 500 miles away [G] from home _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Teardrops fell on Mama's note
_ When I read the thing [Em] she wrote
She [Am] said, we missed you son, [C] we love you, come [D] on home _ _
_ Well [G] I didn't have to fight
I had it all right
_ [E] _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ Away [G] from home _ _
_ Away from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all [Em]
alone
Yes [Am] I'm 500 _ [D] _
miles away [G] from home _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I know this is the same road I took the day I left home
[Em]
But it sure looks different [Am] now
Well I guess I look [C] different too
_ [D] As time changes everything _
_ _ [G] I wonder what they'll say
When they see their boy looking this way
_ Oh [Em] _
_ _ [Am] I wonder what [D] they'll say [G] when I get home
_ _ [A] _
_ Can't [D] remember when I ate
It's just thumb and walking [Bm]
away
And [Em] I'm still 500 [G]
miles away [A] from home _ _
_ If [D] my luck had been just right
_ I'd be with them all [Bm] tonight
But [Em] I'm still 500 [A] _
miles away [D] from home _ _
_ Away [G] from home, away from home
Cold and tired and [Em] all alone
Yes [Am] I'm still 500 [D] _
miles away [G] from home _ _
_ Oh [C] I'm still 500 miles
