Back Home Again
John Denver
D D7 G Em
There's a storm across the valley clouds are rollin' in
A7 D
the afternoon is heavy on your shoulders
D7 G Em
there's a truck out on the four lane a mile or more away
A7 D
the whinin' of his wheels just makes it colder
D D7 G Em
He's an hour away from riding on your prayers up in the sky
A7 D
and ten days on the road are barely gone,
D7 G Em
there's a fire softly burning, supper's on the stove
A7 D
and there's a light in your eyes that makes him warm
Refrain:
G A7 D D7
Hey, it's good to be back home again
G A7 D G
sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend.
A7 D
Yes and hey, it's good to be back home again.
D D7 G Em
There's all the news to tell him, how'd you spent your time?
A7 D
tell me what's the latest thing the neighbor say?
D7 G Em
and your mother called last Friday? 'Sunshine' made her cry
A7 D D7
and you felt the baby move just yesterday.
Refrain
Bridge:
G A7 D G
Oh, the time that I can lay this tired old body down
E A7 D D7
and feel your finger feather soft upon me.
G A7 D G
The kisses that I live for the love that lights my way
E G A7
the happiness that living with you brings me.
D D7 G Em
It's the sweetest thing I know of just spendin' time with you
A7 D
It's the little things that make a house a home.
D7 G Em
Like a fire softly burning, supper on the stove
A7 D
and a light in your eyes that makes me warm
Refrain twice
A7 D
I said hey, it's good to be back home again.
