G                                   Em             C 
I heard them engines runnin' on the road away from home 

D7                                G 
Sound like thunder callin' out my name 

                                           Em             C 
Well I listened hard the first time that I heard 'em roll along 

  D7                             G 
I listened and I'll never be the same 


              D7                    Am   Em D7 
Don't cry cry Blue cause I'm comin' home to you 

       G 
Well I walked with you this mornin' 

         Em             C 
And I'll sleep with you tonight 

      D7         G 
Don't cry cry Bl-ue 


                                   Em              C 
A highway's just a two lane road connecting either way 

        D7                          G 
Oh I've seen enough of this end for awhile 

                                       Em               C 
But I've got to go the distance till I know I've seen a change 

     D7                            G 
I've got to know the feel of every mile 


              D7                    Am   Em D7 
Don't cry cry Blue cause I'm comin' home to you 

       G 
Well I walked with you this mornin' 

         Em             C 
And I'll sleep with you tonight

Don't cry cry Bl-ue

Don't cry cry Blue cause I'm comin' home to you

Well I walked with you this mornin'

And I'll sleep with you tonight 

      D7         G 
Don't cry cry Bl-ue 

  
                               Em              C 
When my head is achin' full of everywhere I've been 

        D7                              G 
Oh I've turned my face around the other way 

                                  Em              C 
Well I'll meet you at the mailbox read you all my cards 

     D7                         G 
Tell you what I really meant to say 


              D7                    Am   Em D7 
Don't cry cry Blue cause I'm comin' home to you 

       G 
Well I walked with you this mornin' 

         Em             C
