Am D G I'm five hundred miles away from homeG Teardrops fell on mama's note,Em when I read the things she wroteAm C She said "We miss you son, we loveD you, come on home"G Well I didn't have to pack, I hadEm it all right on my backAm D Now I'm five hundred miles awayG from homeContinues after the adChorus:G Away from home, away from homeEm Cold and tired and all aloneAm D Yes I'm five hundred miles awayG from home (Spoken) I know this is the same coat I took when I left home But it sure looks different now And I guess I look different too But time changes everything I wonder what they'll say, When they see their boy lookin' this way (Sung) Oh, I wonder what they'll say when I get home (Change to key of D - D,A7,G,Bm) Can't remember when I ate, it's just thumb and walk and wait And I'm still five hundred miles away from home If my love had been just right, I'd be with them all tonight But I'm still five hundred miles away from home
