[Verse 1]
G#m F# E
There’s a time in our lives
F# G#m
To return, sacrifice
F# E
Wild grass has grown high
F# G#m/B
On the path between our lives
F#/A# E
There’s a light in the trees
F# G#m
It’s closer now, I’m on my knees
F# E F#
Oh Father, forgive me, please
[Chorus]
G#m F#
I came a long, long way back home
E F#
To see you one more time
G#m F#
‘Cause I came a long, long way back home
E F#
To see you and say Goodbye
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
G#m F# E
Father’s hands work the ground
F# G#m
Turns the soil, lays it down
F# E
Everything done and said
F# G#m/B
Lives beyond the quick and the dead
F#/A# E
Heritage passed along
F# G#m
To the sons like a blessed song
F# E F#
So raise your voices on high tonight
[Chorus]
G#m F#
I came a long, long way back home
E F#
To see you one more time
G#m F#
‘Cause I came a long, long way back home
E F#
To see you and say Goodbye
G#m F#
I came a long, long way back home
E F#
To see you one more time
G#m F#
‘Cause I came a long, long way back home
E F# G#m
To hold you and say Goodbye, Goodbye
