There's aGstorm across the
G7valley,
Cclouds are rollin' in
TheD7afternoon is heavy on your
Gshoulders
G
There's aGtruck out on the
G7four lane, a
Cmile or more away
TheD7whinin' of his wheels just makes it
Gcolder
G
He's anGhour away from
G7ridin', on your
Cprayers up in the sky
AndD7ten days on the road are barely
Ggone
G
There's aGfire softly
G7burning,
Csupper's on the stove
But it's theD7light in your eyes that makes him
Gwarm
G7
CHORUS:CHey, it's good to
D7be back home a-
Ggain

D7this old farm
Gfeels like a
G7long-lost
Cfriend
Yes, 'n,D7hey it's good, to be back home a-
Ggain
G
There’sGall the news to
G7tell him,
Chow’d you spend your time?
D7And what's the latest thing the neighbours
Gsay
G
And yourGmother called last
G7Friday,
C"Sunshine" made her cry
YouD7felt the baby move just yester-
Gday

Cspending time with you
It’s theD7little things that make a house a
