Long Way From Home

Tom : A
[Intro] A D A E F#m D A
A D A E F#m D A
Held on to hope like a noose, like a rope
A D A E F#m D A
God and medicine take no mercy on him
D A D A
Poisoned his blood, and burned out his throat
D A E F#m D A D A E F#m D A
Enough is enough, he's a long way from home
A D A E F#m D A
Days of my youth wasted on a selfish fool
A D A E F#m D A
Who ran for the hills from the hand you were dealt
D A D A
I flew far away, as far as I could go
D A E F#m D A D A E F#m D A
Your time is running out and I'm a long way from home
( A D A E F#m D A )
A D A E F#m D A
Laid up in bed, you were laid up in bed
A D A E F#m D A
Holding the pain like you're holding your breath
D A D A
I prayed you could sleep, sleep like a stone
D A E F#m D A D A E F#m D A
You're right next to me but you're a long way from home
( A D A E F#m D A )
A D A E F#m D A
Hospital gowns never fit like they should
A D A E F#m D A
We yelled at the nurse, didn't do any good
D A D A
More morphine, the last words you moaned
D A E F#m D A D A E F#m D A
At last I was sure that you weren't far away from home
