"HOME" by Joe Diffie
Verse 1:
[D]The only the thing I see ahead is
[G] just the heat [A]a rising off the[D] road
[D]The rainbows I've been chasing keep on
[G]fading before I [A] find my pot of [D]gold
[G]But more and more I'm thinking, that the only treasures
[A]that I'll ever [D]kno[G]ow

Chorus:

and the feel of a muddy row between my [D]toes

and the smell of Sunday supper on the [D]sto-[G]ve

[G]words of wisdom [A]that my daddy[D] said

[A]thousand winding [D]ro-[G]oads,
[D]My footsteps carry me away, but [A]in my mind I'm
[G]always going [D]home.
Repeat Chorus (then add)
[G]Yeah, the straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a
[A]thousand winding [D]ro-[G]oads,
[D]My footsteps carry me away, but [A]in my mind I'm
