      G    A 
I'm a long way from home 
G      A 
And so all alone 
G                A                 D 
Homesick, like I never thought I'd be 
D7    G    A 
I'm a long way from home 
G        A 
And everything is wrong 
G              A          D 
Someone please watch over me 


D         D7                G 
I'm not accustomed to these feelings 
    A                       D 
The lonliness is burning in my soul 
                            G 
Sometimes the mind is so misleading 
A                                    D 
I wish I'd stayed at home like I was told 


      G    A 
I'm a long way from home 
G      A 
And so all alone 
G                A                 D 
Homesick, like I never thought I'd be 
D7    G    A 
I'm a long way from home 
G        A 
And everything is wrong 
G              A          D 
Someone please watch over me
