Intro : C F C G
C
I was on my way to Charleston
F G
when she called me from Austin
C
'n it was raining don't it figure
F G
like it always does when things go wrong
C F G
That smokey mountain air got a whole colder when i told her
C F G
they just added two more weeks to this tour I'm on
Am C
She said, I know it's what you wished for
Am C
sometimes deep down in my heart
Am C
I hate what you were born to do
F G
and I curse that lucky star
-Chorus-
NC C
cause it starts to feel like home is anywhere you roam,
F G
any road you're on, any sky you're under,
C F G
home, when you're with the band and the crowd's as loud as thunder
C F C F
and it scares me half to death, that what you've given up to get
C F G
'n all the things that you'll regret when you get home
'n and I could tell on the other end that long distance line she was lying
when she said she wasn't crying and she had to go
and have a good show
and I told her girl I hope you know
you're the only thing, that keeps me going
and I'm missing you and out here all alone
but I'm a million miles away
and I've got to hit that stage
but i swear we'll talk about it when i get home
and she said, "what do you know about home?"
-Chorus-
-Solo- ( Use the chords for the chorus.)
-Chorus-
-Tag-
I was on my way to Charleston
when she called me, from Austin
'n it was raining don't it figure
like it always does when things go wrong
