	  		verse 1: 

(no chord) 
I've got these letters tattooed on my arm 
That remind me each second of where I come from 
        C#m                             B     E 
And the long hard road to guide me back home 

E 
Back to my mama who raised me up right 
A 
And back to my lady I held every night 
C#m                                 B 
It's a long hard road trying to get home 
          C#m              B 
I've been gone now for too long 

tabchorus
E I'm not trying to stop a hurricane E A I'm not trying to shake the ground below A C#m B A I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home E I'm not trying to part the ocean waves E A I'm not trying to overthrow the throne A C#m B A I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home A E I'm just trying to get home

verse 2: E I've got this image engraved in my mind A Of a light that I had in a whole different time C#m B It still breathes and lives at the end of the road E I've seen mountains and valleys through my missing days A But I never once parted with how you begged me to stay C#m B A I will run down that long hard and treacherous road to get home
tabchorus
E I'm not trying to stop a hurricane A I'm not trying to shake the ground below C#m B A I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home E I'm not trying to part the ocean waves E A I'm not trying to overthrow the throne A C#m B A I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home A E I'm just trying to get 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
tabchorus
E I'm not trying to stop a hurricane E A I'm not trying to shake the ground below A C#m B A I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home A E I'm not trying to part the ocean waves E A I'm not trying to overthrow the throne A C#m B A I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home A E I'm just trying to get home
tab
E I'm just trying to get home (2x)
