Intro: D  Em  D  Em  A 

verse 1: 
 D                               Em 
Sitting by the window of this broken-down hotel, 
  D                                Em 
Trying to write a letter just to show you that I'm well, 
               D                                Em 
But I've been watching all the people as they cross the marketplace, 
      D                                          Em 
And though there really is no reason, I've been looking for your face. 

       
             D       Bm  Em  A 
It's such a long way        home, 
             D       Bm  Em  A 
It's such a long way        home, 
             D       Bm  Em  A 
It's such a long way...
 

verse 2: 
  D                            Em 
Standing by the aeroplane she held me in her arms, 
               D                                    Em 
And then she whispered "oh dear lord don't let him come to any harm" 
           D                             Em 
And as we turned to fly away I saw her standing on her own, 
               D                             Em 
It seemed her hand was waving not goodbye but "please come home". 


             D       Bm  Em  A 
It's such a long way        home, 
             D       Bm  Em  A 
It's such a long way        home, 
             D       Bm  Em  A 
It's such a long way... 


Bridge: 
    G                       F#m 
Oh so many people have to travel away, 
         Em                            D 
From the ones that they love and they need, 
    G                       F#m 
But I want to tell you that all your life, 
     Em              A 
You can depend on me. 

verse 3: 
 D                    Em 
Far away a saxophone lingers on a tune, 
              D                                   Em 
And it's the kind of song that someone wrote for lovers and a moon, 
            D                               Em 
And as the band begins to play it, with a shock I realize, 
             D                            Em 
That it's a song we sang together and it nearly makes me cry. 


             D       Bm  Em  A 
It's such a long way         home, 
             D       Bm  Em  A 
It's such a long way         home, 
             D       Bm  Em          A          G   D 
It's such a long way         such a long way home.
