Intro:

C F C G


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:
F C G C
F C G C


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
