It’s a long way home
C
He couldn’t see too well
D Em
His left eye was shot out in the war

So tired of watching
Bm
All of the time
Bm C
It’s hard enough keep awake and alive
G
On this cold day
G
As far as he knows

It’s gonna take four days
D Em
For the man to catch up with the mile
D
And there’s nothing that

Could ever be smiling

He never thought that he would be poor
G

Am D
Oooh

The birds are falling
B

C D Em
So he told his boots... to carry on

Oh but the thunder
Em
Of the river behind him
B C

G
Against his odds
Am D
Oooh

He had a day dream
Em
And a real need for a cigarette
Am D
Oooh

The moon is calling
B
And it will be dark soon
C D Em
So he told his boots... To carry on
