Verse 1:
    C                             F            C
The line of the horizon stretches far as I can see
       G                   F     C
I have come by the highway home
     C                           F                 C
This dry and dusty road turns to clouds beneath my feet
       G                   F     C
I have come by the highway home
         C                                F                  C
Past the stubble of the cornfield and the lonely blackbird's song,
       G                   F       C
I have come by the highway home
        C                            F                C
And the broken line of oak that have stood here all along
       G                   F       C
I have come by the highway home

Chorus:
        F                       C
Can you see the first star of a blue night
        G                    C
Can you hear the soft cicada drone
        F                      C
Can you feel the warmth of the moonlight
       G                   F      C
I have come by the highway home


Interlude:
C  F  C  G  F  C


Verse 2:
C                                   F          C
Just around the bend, the chimney's movin' his smoke
       G                   F     C
I have come by the highway home
       C                           F           C
In the blue-black mornin', all the windows are closed
       G                       F     C
I have come by the highway home
        F                           C
Can you see the dogs jumpin' at the backdoor
        G                     C
Can you hear the mornin' dove moan
        F                        C
Can you feel the sunlight on the wood floor
       G                         F   C
I have come by the highway home


Interlude:

Verse 3:
        C                               F                   C
Can you hear the sound of church bells, ringin' through the town
       G                         F   C
I have come by the highway home
        C                          F                C
And the painting of the sky as the setting sun goes down
       G                        F   C
I have come by the highway home
       G                        F   C
I have come by the highway home
