[Verse]
A
And by the time that she gets home
A
She'll realise that I am gone
D A
I'll be sitting in a back bar drinkin'
A
Drinking to my friends
And drinking to my foes
A D A
For both keep a young heart moving.
A D
It's good to be on the trail
A
From where my heart set sail
A
Puttin anchor down
D A
For friends and good beer
A
So I'll have another one
Then I'll be moving on.
[Chorus]
A D A
It's good to be on the road back home again. Again
A D A
It's good to be on the road back home again.
[Verse]
A
And by the time that he arrives
A
He will read, I have lied
A D A
He'll go drinking to his friends and to his foes.
A
But drinking is the devil
That drives one apart, leaving
A D A
Memories of what should have been and wasn't.
A D
Some petty business
A
In Tokyo town
A D
Italy for the apples
A
To where my heart is now.
A D
Now its giddy up or whoa
and I'm afraid it's good to be back on the road home."
[Chorus]
A D A
It's good to be on the road back home again. Again.
A D A G
It's good to be on the road back home again.
[Instrumental]
A
[Verse]
A
I swear I meant to leave Chattanoogah
A
But I had another one.
A D
And I realised what I'd done
A
I need to be on the first bus back
D A
Into her arms
A D A
It's good to be on the road back home again
A D
Too many nights
A
In dirty London town
A D
Italy for the apples
A
To where my heart is now.
A
For I've lost myself, searchin'
For what I ain't
[Chorus]
A D A
It's good to be on the road back home again. Again.
A D A
It's good to be on the road back home again.
[Verse]
A
Leave Chattanooga
A
Walk in to New York City
A
Aeroplane down to Nippon ground
A
Meets some friends in Tokio-town
A
Across to West Maluva
A
Showboat to West Malay
A
Leave my foes to their woes
A
Sometimes that's how it goes
[Chorus]
A D A
It's good to be on the road back home again. Again.
A D A
It's good to be on the road back home again.
[Outro]
