[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

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.
