500 Miles Away from Home Chords by Bobby Bare, Bobby Bare, Charlie Williams, Hedy West

[D] _ [G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [D] I'm 500 miles away [G] from home _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Teardrops fell on Mama's note
When I read the thing she [Em] wrote
She [Am] said, we miss you [C] son, we love you, come [D] on home _ _
_ Well [G] I didn't have to pack
_ Away _ _ _ [Em] _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [G] from home _ _
_ Away from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all [Em]
alone
Yes [Am] I'm 500 _ [D] _
miles away [G] from home _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I know this is the same road I took the day I left home
[Em]
But it sure looks different [Am] now
Well I guess I look [C] different too
_ [D] Cause time changes everything _
_ [E] _ [G] I wonder what they'll say
When they see their boy looking this way
_ _ Oh [Em] _
_ I [Am] wonder what [D] they'll say when [G] I get home
_ _ [A] _
I [D] can't remember when I ate
It's just thumb and walking [Bm]
away
And [Em] I'm still 500 _ [G]
miles away [A] from home _ _
_ If [D] my luck had been just right
I'd be with them all [Bm]
tonight
But I'm [Em] still 500 [A]
miles away [D] from home _ _
Away [G] from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all [Em]
alone
Yes [Am] I'm still 500 _ [D]
miles away [G] from home _ _
_ Oh [Am] I'm still 500 [G] miles
