as recorded by Bonnie Raitt on the album Sweet Forgiveness 1977

3/4 time

1 2- 4 1

Travelin at night the headlites were brite

1 1 5 5

And we^Òd been up many an hour

1 2- 4 1

All thru my brain came the refrain

1 5 1 1

Of Home and it^Òs warmin fire

1 1 4 1

And Home sings me of sweet things

1 1 5 5

My life there has it^Òs own wings

1 1 4 1

Fly over the mountain

#2/#6 4/6 5 5 [note in C: #2=D# #6=A#]

Tho I^Òm standin still

The people I^Òve seen they come in between

The cities of tiring light

and the trains come and go but inside you know

The struggle^Òll soon be a fite

Travelin at nite the headlites were brite

And soon the sun came thru the trees

Around the next bend the flowers will send

The sweet smell of home in the breeze
