[Verse 1]
F                                             Eb
Well my body’s tired and my mind is worn, I’m lost like a child in a delta storm
        Bb                           F
And I think it’s time to take it on home
F                                             Eb
Hangin’ by a thread and I need a little hope, comin’ untied like a frayed out rope
        Bb                           F
And I think it’s time to take it on home

[Chorus]
F                                     Eb
Back to the arms of the woman I love, sunshine angel with the healing touch
Bb                                    F
Sweet hallelujah from heaven above, straight to my bones
F                                     Eb
Back to the place where I feel alive, put a little peace in this heart of mine
Bb                                            Eb          Bb                  F
Been long gone and I’m thinkin’ it’s time to take it on take it on take it on home

[Verse 2]
F                                                  Eb
There’s a spot beneath the magnolia trees where I feel the wind just talkin’ to me
         Bb                               F
And I’m thinkin’ it’s time to take it on home
F                                                  Eb
A little white house down a gravel road where the world is easy and the days are slow
         Bb                               F
And I’m thinkin’ it’s time to take it on home

[Chorus]
F                                     Eb
Back to the arms of the woman I love, sunshine angel with the healing touch
Bb                                    F
Sweet hallelujah from heaven above, straight to my bones
F                                     Eb
Back to the place where I feel alive, put a little peace in this heart of mine
Bb                                            Eb                    Bb        F
Been long gone and I’m thinkin’ it’s time to take it on take it on take it on home
F      Eb         Bb                    F
Oh-oh take it on take it on take it on home

F                                             Eb
Well my body’s tired and my mind is worn, I’m lost like a child in a delta storm
         Bb
And I’m thinkin’ it’s time…   (Single notes C D Eb D C Bb A C)
