Josie works the counter at the 
  D
downtown five and dime,
   G                               
anything at all to help her pass 
  D
the time.

Her mama keeps the baby and grandpa 
rambles on
          G                        
about the good times playing in his
 D
 mind.

       G                           
It's a hard life living when you're
 D
 lonely,
       G                   D
it's a long night sleeping alone.
       G                    
It's a hard time waiting for 
   D
tomorrow,
       G              D     D     
it's a long, long way home.

Josie spends the evening with the 
D
people in the pages
       G                         
of the paperback she picked up at 
     D
the store.

Or sometimes it's the TV, or she'll
 D
 try to write a letter,
    G                        
oh, they don't come too often 
 D
anymore.

it's a long, long way home.

I stare at the grey walls before me,
D                     G
I see her face in the stone.
  D                  G
I try to imagine our baby,
  D                         G
I wish they would let me go home.
  D                         G     
I wish they would let me go home.

         G                     D
Bringing me and the other boys home,

Bring me and the other boys home.
