Lyrics

E             F#m        A               E         E            E       B7   B7
Travelling at night  the headlights were bright  & we’d been up many an hour
E              F#m   A          E         E            B7            E
All through my brain came the refrain  of home and its sweet warming fire

Chorus: 
    E    E           A     E
And home sings me of sweet things
   E    E             B7  B7
My life there has its own wings
E   E        A   E
Fly over the mountains
G          A        B7    B7
Though I’m standing still

E               F#   A         E          E         E      B7   B7
The people I’ve seen come in between  the cities of tiring light
        E             F#m     A          E        E             B7        E
And the trains come & go  but inside you know the struggle will soon be a fight

Chorus:  

E            F#m       A               E        E            E             B7 B7
Travelin’ at night the headlights were bright & soon the sun came thru the trees
E               F#m      A            E         E             B7          E
Around the next bend the flowers will send the sweet smell of home in the breeze

    E    E           A     E
And home sings me of sweet things
   E    E             B7  B7
My life there has its own wings
E   E        A   E
Fly over the mountains
G          A        B7    B7
Though I’m standing still           X 2  (then last line)
G          A        E
Though I’m standing still
