D  
I heard you slippin' down the hall, tell me, did your shadow trip an' fall 
     G                      D  
Over you, babe, movin' that slowly 
D 
Did you think you could waste my time, come a-messin' round with my mind 
        G                          D 
Did you think you could, you don't know me 
 
A 
Where'd you get that alibi, did it fall out of a midnight sky 
           G                          D 
Or did you find it on the side of the road 
         A 
Tell me, did you have to make a deal or wrestle for control of the wheel 
          G                       D                 Bm G           D    
From your conscience, I'd like to know where do you go on your way home 
 
 
 
You know someday I'd like to fly, like a bat outta Nashville 
Why don't you help me and tell me the truth 
'Cause the truth is gonna set you free if you keep on lyin' to me 
I might stay right here just to spite you 

             Bm  G  D              Bm  G  D                 Bm   
Where do you go       Where do you go          Where do you go 
G          D                  G 
On your way home, On your way home 
D       G        D   
Mmmmmm, Mmmmmmmmmmm 
 
 
 
Chorus 2: 
Where'd you get that alibi, did it fall out of a midnight sky 
Or did you find it lyin' on the side of the road 
Was it ever a long, long drive, did you ever stop once to cry 
Or was I worth it, I think I know,  where do you go, where do you go 
Where do you go on your way home, on your way home
