 Verse 1:
    E             
 So far from home,
    B           
 My cry of pain,
       E               B     
 Won't ease my longing heart,
   E            
 I miss you mam,
   B            
 I miss you dad,
     E        B    
 I'm falling apart,
          E             B      
 Now when I look out my window,
           E              B    
 Through a winter evening rain,
   E                    B           
 I see the same sky you see at home,
     E                B    
 Somehow it's not the same,
 
 Chorus:
              E              B    
 Yeah and I'm longing to get home,
       E                    B      
 How I miss all your loving smiles,
     A                 B     
 And Oh how the winter bites,
                E        
 When you're so far away,
        B    
 For so long,
 For far too long,

 Verse 2:(chords as verse 1)
 
 Is my girl still there?
 Does she visit you?
 Is she still as pretty as ever?
 Does she ask for me?
 'Cos I long for her,
 I need her more than ever,
 Tell her it won't be long,
 Until I'm home to stay,
 And I won't ever go again,
 By her side I'll always stay,
 
 Chorus
