[VERSE]
          A7      D
I've been away so long
          A7          D
I'm navigating by the stars
      A7              D
Every highway takes a toll
          A7
And every brigde 
     D
is a bridge too far

[VERSE]
          A7      D
If I can't go 'round
A7                D
Then I'm gonna go through 
                   A7      
'cause there ain't nothin' in this
D
Crazy world
     A7
Will Keep me from getting 
D
back to you

[PRE-CHORUS]
    A             Bm
But a mile on the rails
     G           E7
Is a mile on the road
        A        Bm
And the hands of time
         G
Hold you down
                       A
When you're carrying a heavy load

[CHORUS]
    A7     D
I'm almost home
              G      D
Ain't got too far to go
             G
Ten thousand telephone poles
    A
And two more dreams
A7              D
Let the Rockies be
        G           D
Let the wild rivers roar
    D                      A
The only thing I ever know for sure
          G              D
Is that I never miss you more
         A7     D
When I'm almost home

[VERSE]
        A7      D
Goodbye Lake Louise
  A7          D
I hardly even know you
         A7      
The only trouble with 
D
blue-green eyes
            A7         D
Is how they look right through you

[VERSE]
          A7     D
So hello, Lake Ontario
A7               D
Shotdown on your Greyhound bus
A7            D
Last call for Orilla
A7               D
Fall colours all around us

[PRE-CHORUS]
A             Bm
A mile on the rails
     G           E7
Is a mile on the road
        A        Bm
But the hands of time
         G
Hold you down
                       A
When you're carrying a heavy load

[CHORUS]
    A7     D
I'm almost home
              G      D
Ain't got too far to go
             G
Ten thousand telephone poles
    A
And two more dreams
A7              D
Let the Rockies be
        G           D
Let the wild rivers roar
    D                      A
The only thing I ever know for sure
          G              D
Is that I never miss you more
         A7     D
When I'm almost home

[CHORUS]
    A7     D
I'm almost home
              G      D
Ain't got too far to go
             G
Ten thousand telephone poles
    A
And two more dreams
A7              D
Let the Rockies be
        G           D
Let the wild rivers roar
    D                      A
The only thing I ever know for sure
          G              D
Is that I never miss you more...
  G              D
I never miss you more
  G              D
I never miss you more
         A7     D
When I'm almost home
