Bobby Bare - 500 Miles Away From Home


(verse 1)
     D7            C              G
I'm five hundred miles away from home
G
Teardrops fell on mama's note,
                           Em7 	 
when I read the things she wrote,
            D7                C                 D7
She said we miss you son, we love you, come on home,
       G                                             Em7
Well I didn't have to pack, I had it all right on my back,
        D7            C              G
Now I'm five hundred miles away from home,


(chorus)
 G                                                      Em7
Away from home, away from home, cold and tired and all alone,
         D7           C              G
Yes I'm five hundred miles away from home,


(verse 2) 
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,
Oh, I wonder what they'll say when I get home,


(verse 3)
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,
 	 

(chorus)
 G                                                      Em7
Away from home, away from home, cold and tired and all alone,
         D7           C              G
Yes I'm five hundred miles away from home,
               D7           C              G
Oh, I'm still five hundred miles away from home,
