Verse 1:
C majorC FF C majorC
The line of the horizon stretches far as I can see

C majorC FF C majorC
This dry and dusty road turns to clouds beneath my feet

I have come by the highway home

Past the stubble of the cornfield and the lonely blackbird's song,

I have come by the highway home

And the broken line of oak that have stood here all along
G+G FF C majorC
I have come by the highway home

In the blue-black mornin', all the windows are closed
G+G FF C majorC
I have come by the highway home
