500 Miles Away from Home — Bobby Bare
Chords and lyrics for 500 Miles Away from Home by Bobby Bare (key of F).
Intro
I'm [Dm]five hundred [G7]miles away from [F]home
[F]Teardrops fell on mama's note when I read the things she [Dm]wrote
She said we [Dm]miss you son we [F]love you come on [G]home
Well I [F]didn't have to pack I had it all right on my [Dm]back
Now I'm [Dm]five hundred [G]miles away from [F]home
Away from home away from home cold and tired and all [Dm]alone
Yes I'm [Dm]five hundred [G]miles away from [F]home
[F] [Dm] [Dm] [F] [G]
[F] [Dm] [Dm] [G] [F]
I know this is the same road I took the day I left home
But it sure looks different now
Well I guess I look different too cause time changes everything
I wonder what they'll say when they see their boy looking this way
Oh I [Dm]wonder what they'll [G]say when I get [F]home[D7]
Can't [G]remember when I ate it's just thumb and walk and [Em]wait
And I'm [Dm]still five hundred [F]miles away from [D7]home
If my [G]luck had been just right I'd be with them all [Em]tonight
But I'm [Dm]still five hundred [D7]miles away from [G]home
Away from [F]home away from home cold and tired and all [Dm]alone
Yes I'm [Dm]five hundred[G] miles away [F]from home
