[Verse 1:]
(no chord)
I've got these letters tattooed on my arm
That remind me each second of where I come from
And the [C#m]long hard road to guide me back [B]home[E]
[E]Back to my mama who raised me up right
[A]And back to my lady I held every night
[C#m]It's a long hard road trying to get [B]home
I've been [C#m]gone now for too [B]long
[Cborus:]
I'm not trying to [E]stop a hurricane
[E]I'm not trying to [A]shake the ground below
[A]I'm just trying to [C#m]find a [B]way to make it back [A]home
I'm not trying to [E]part the ocean waves
[E]I'm not trying to ov[A]erthrow the throne
[A]I'm just trying to [C#m]find a [B]way to make it back [A]home
[A]I'm just trying to get [E]home
[Verse 2:]
[E]I've got this image engraved in my mind
Of a [A]light that I had in a whole different time
It still [C#m]breathes and lives at the end of the [B]road
I've seen [E]mountains and valleys through my missing days
But I [A]never once parted with how you begged me to stay
I will [C#m]run down that long hard and [B]treacherous road to get [A]home
[Cborus:]
[E]I'm not trying to stop a hurricane
[A]I'm not trying to shake the ground below
I'm just trying to [C#m]find a [B]way to make it back [A]home
I'm not trying to [E]part the ocean waves
[E]I'm not trying to ov[A]erthrow the throne
[A]I'm just trying to [C#m]find a [B]way to make it back [A]home
[A]I'm just trying to get [E]home
[Bridge:]
(no chord)
I've been gone for so long
But my heart it carries on
As it pounds like a drum
On my journey back home
[E]I've been gone for so long
[E]But my heart it carries on
[C#m]I won't give up
[Cborus:]
I'm not trying to [E]stop a hurricane
[E]I'm not trying to [A]shake the ground below
[A]I'm just trying to [C#m]find a [B]way to make it back [A]home
[A]I'm not trying to [E]part the ocean waves
[E]I'm not trying to ov[A]erthrow the throne
[A]I'm just trying to [C#m]find a [B]way to make it back [A]home
[A]I'm just trying to get [E]home
[E]I'm just trying to get home [X2]
