500 Miles Away From Home
Recorded by Bobby Bare


I'm fi-[D7]ve hundred mi-[C]les away from[G]home

[G]Teardrops fell on mama's note,

when I read the things she[Em]wrote

She said "We[D7]miss you son, we[C]love you, come on[D7] home"

Well I[G]didn't have to pack, I had it all right on my[Em]back

Now I'm fi-D7]ve hundred mi-[C]les away from[G]home

Chorus:
G
Away from home, away from home

Cold and tired and all al-[Em]one

Yes I'm fi-[D7]ve hundred mi-[C]les away from[G]home

(Spoken) 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
(Sung) Oh, I wonder what they'll say when I get home



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
