    5   -5    6   6  6  -5  -5 5     
 There's a storm across the valley, 
 
  -5    6  -5 4     4
 clouds are rollin' in,
 
 -4   6 6  6   -5 -5 5  -4 -4    -4   5
 The afternoon is heavy on your shoulders.
 
   5    -5   6    6  -6  6   -5    5   
 There's a truck out on the four-lane, 
 
 5  -5   6  -5  4 4
 a mile or more away,
 
  -4  6  6    6  -5  -5     
 The whinin' of his wheels 
 
  -5   5    -4 -4  4
 just makes it colder.
 
  6   6   6   6 -6  6   -5 5   
 He's an hour away from ridin' 
 
 -4   5     -5   6 -5  4    4
 on your prayers up in the sky
 
  6   6   6    6 -5   -5  -5   5 -4    5
 And ten days on the road are barely gone.
 
   5    -5   6  -6 6   -5  5    
 There's a fire softly burnin'; 
 
 -5  5    -5  4    4
 supper's on the stove.
 
  6    6   6    6    6  -5   -5  
 But it's the light in your eyes 
 
  -5    5    -4   4
 that makes him warm.
 
 Chorus
 
 -6    -6   -6  -6  6   6   6   -5 5
 Hey, it's good to be back home again.
 
 -6   -6    6    6    6  
 Sometimes this old farm 
 
  5      5  6   5   -4     4
 feels like a long lost friend.
 
  -6 5 6      6   -6  -5 -5  -5   5   -4 4
 Yes'n'hey, it's good to be back home again.
 
 Verse
 There's all the news to tell him; how'd you spent your time?  
 And what's the latest things the neighbors say?  
 And your mother called last Friday, "Sunshine" made he cry,  
 And you felt the baby move just yesterday -> Chorus
 
 Bridge
 
  4    7    7   7  -7  -7 -7  -7  
 And, oh, the time that I can lay 
 
  -6    6   -6   6 5   4
 this tired old body down
 
  -4  -4    -5  -6  7  
 And feel your fingers 
 
  -7  7  -7   -6 5  6
 feather-soft upon me.
 
  4   7  7   7  -8  7   -7   
 The kisses that I live for, 
 
  6    6  -6    6     4   4
 the love that lights my way,
 
  5  -4 5 -5    -6  7 7   
 The happiness that being 
 
  7    7   -6     6
 with you brings me.
 
 Verse
 The sweetest thing I know of, just spending time with you
 It's the little things that make a house a home.
 Like a fire softly burning and supper on the stove,
 And the light in your eyes that makes me warm. -> Chorus
 
 Repeat last two lines of Chorus to end.  
 Note one variation for
 
     -5   6    -6
    long-lost friend
