My Way Home

Tom: A

            D              A
My Kentucky friend dance a song for me
        D                                              A
Make it high and heard above the rain that's falling so free
           G#m           F#m  F#m/E#            F#m/E
We've been gone so long,      longer than we've known
D                     A
It seem to me it's my way home

Watching greyhounds roll through the giant dawn
I can see it all the way today, it goes on and on
Still the lady cries how she's so alone
Till longin' dies, it's my way home

D               C                  A
Lost in a dream where windows open out on stars
D                 C                     E
Reaching to touch and touching what was almost ours

Hey Kentucky friend, moonlight on your skin
Rising from a dream, you're nothing more than what you pretend
We've been gone so long, longer than we've known
It's over now, it's my way home
It's over now it's my way home
