[Verse]
C F
Where the mountains sweep down to meet the coast along the bay,
C F
I’m going home if I live to see the day.
C F G
While this old flat town has got me tied down,
F G C
I’ll stay on until my money’s made.
C F
Remember the snow flying, winds howling outside,
C F
Back door flappin’ and the wind a-bafflin’ smoke down inside the pipes,
C F G
I spent all my free days cutting and hauling wood,
F G C
And I trade it all for the four lanes out front any day if I could.
C F
They never knew what happy meant when they put up all of those signs.
C
The drivers are swearing and the horns are blaring,
F
Everybody pretends they’re blind.
C F G
And the drunks and the bums are the only ones who’ll pass the time of day,
F G C
And I know if I gave it to them they’d drink all of my money away.
C F
Remember the ice moving out it was the loudest thing I’d heard.
C F
And the tick, tick, tock of my clock kept a getting’ on my nerves.
C F G
Well now my new electric alarms and I sleep on into the day,
F G C
Dreaming about spring coming to that place on the bay.
C F
I never knew what dying meant until I saw my old man go,
C F
Poor old Ma she’d have to go it all alone.
C F
And it’s been so long since the kids been gone the next time we’re down that
G
way,
F G C
It’ll only be to bury her where the mountains meets the bay.
F
Where the mountains sweeps down to meet the coast along the bay,
C F G C
I’m going home if I live to see the day.
