A Long Road Home
A C#m D A
How I long to feel the salty wind
F#m C#m D E
Off Galveston Bay in my face once again
F#m C#m D A
A warm southern wind on my weather worn skin
F#m C#m Bm E
Perhaps I would not feel so old

Now I long to hold the golden sand

In the hollow of my hand

Stand for a while there and fill in the hole

Left in the heart of a wounded old soul
A C#m D A
Here’s to tomorrow, here,s to today
F#m C#m D E
Here’s to whatever I never did say
F#m C# D Bm
Here’s to old friends who have gone seperate ways
A E A
Here’s to the memories

How I long to be in those East Texas woods

I would be in those old piney woods if I could

On a hot summer mornin' down Centerville Way

With the windows rolled down in my old Chevrolet

Just cruisin' the backroads with nothin' but time

Three nickels short of having a dime

Miles from the highway with no hill left to climb

Me and the whisperin' pine

Here’s to tomorrow, here,s to today

Here’s to whatever I never did say

Here’s to your love you are happy I pray

Out on this long stretch of Interstate 10

That ole Del Rio station just keeps rollin' right in

Many the night it was my only friend

Me and the radio

The Silver Moon Cafe was once out this way

Like Route 66 boys it too had its day

And this rusty old sign here is all that remains
