Am G  C Bm  D G   Em

[Chorus]
G              Em     Am  G
I'm just a long, long way from home
G              Em     Am  G
I'm just a long, long way from home
G                    Em
Lord knows I ain't a saint
         Am                G
My folks ain't the ones to blame
G                        Am
I ain't chose the path I roam
           Am       G
And it's a long way home


[Verse 1]
G                Em
I'm tired of the chains
          Am         G
That keep holding me down
G                    Em
And I'm stuck in the fog
       Am         G
That I just can't see around
G                 Em
My feet grow weary
           Am           G
From these miles on the road
             Em                           G
But I got my brother to help me carry the load
G                       Em
Well I been feelin' all alone
        Am      G
In this world I bought
G                             Em
And I been wrapped in imitations
        Am   G
For the love I sought
            G              Em
Through the risings of the water
        Am   G
And the nights of endless black
          Am                    G
I know my sisters always got my back


[Chorus]

G              Em     Am  G
I'm just a long, long way from home
G              Em     Am  G
I'm just a long, long way from home
G                    Em
Lord knows I ain't a saint
         Am                G
My folks ain't the ones to blame
G                        Am
I ain't chose the path I roam
           Am       G
And it's a long way home


[Verse 2]
      Em
So we walk along the road
               G
That we did not plan
G                      Em
We boarded on the ships
     Am   G
To a promised land
G                 Em
From time we have together
       Am       G
To the lonesome catacomb
G             Am    G
We don't walk it on our own
G                   Em
And it's a long way home


[Chorus]
G              Em     Am     G
I'm just a long, long way from home
G              Em     Am     G
I'm just a long, long way from home
G                    Em
Lord knows I ain't a saint
         Am                G
My folks ain't the ones to blame
G                        Am
I ain't chose the path I roam
           Am       G
And it's a long way home


[Outro]
G             Am    G
We don't walk it on our own
G                   Em
And it's a long way home
