Joe Diffie
[Intro]
 
C F
 
[Verse 1]
C
The only the thing I see ahead is
F                G            C
just the heat a rising off the road
C                      Am
The rainbows I've been chasing keep on
F                G             C
fading before I find my pot of gold
F
And more and more I'm thinking, that the only treasures
             C Am
that I'll ever know
C                            G
Are long ago and far behind wrapped up in my
            C
memories of home
 
[Chorus]
F
Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole
                                       C
and the feel of a muddy road between my toes
F
Home was a back porch swing where I would sit
                  C
and mom would sing amazing grace
                       G
While she hung out the clothes,
F
Home was an easy chair with my daddy there
                                      C   Am
and the smell of Sunday supper on the stove
C                              G
My footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm
             C
always going home
 
 
[Verse 2]

C#
Now the miles I put behind me ain't as
 
F#          G#              C#
hard as the miles that lay ahead
C#                         A#m
And it's way too late to listen to the
F#                 G#         C#
words of wisdom that my daddy said
F#
The straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a
               C#   A#m
thousand winding roads,
C#                                 G#
My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm
             C#
always going home.
 
 
[Chorus]
F#
Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole
                                       C#
and the feel of a muddy road between my toes
F#
Home was a back porch swing where I would sit
                  C#
and mom would sing amazing grace
                       G#
While she hung out the clothes,
F#
Home was an easy chair with my daddy there
                                    C#   A#m
and the smell of Sunday supper on the stove
C#                              G#
My footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm
             C#
always going home
 
 
[Outro]
F#
The straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a
                 C#  A#m
thousand winding roads,
C#                                 G#
My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm
 
             C#
always going home.
