Lucero - Long way back home

^AmWe weren't even supposed to be there ^AmIt was just another run ^AmTook a detour cross the river ^AmMake it back home before dawn ^DmAnd my hands they took to shaking ^DmWhen I see headlights down the road ^AmMid-July in Arkansas it sure ain't cause I'm cold ^GIn my hand I hold a pistol ^DmIn my heart I hold the weight

^AmWell it's been twenty years now ^AmSince my father passed away ^AmIt's been me and my brothers since ^AmAnd we learned to make our way ^DmOne went in the army and one was a marine ^DmBut since they came back home ^GWe just been taking what we need ^DmNever really think about what's outside the law

And it's a ^Glong ^Dmway back ^Amhome ^Am And it's a ^Glong ^Dmway back ^Amhome ^Am

^AmIt wasn't supposed to be like this ^AmThought no one was around ^AmI never saw it coming ^AmHeard the shots and hit the ground ^DmThat's when the screaming started ^DmAnd I started up the car ^AmWe headed for I-40 ^AmHope they don't follow that far ^GIn my hand I hold a pistol ^DmIn my heart I hold the weight

And it's a ^Glong ^Dmway back ^Amhome ^Am And it's a ^Glong ^Dmway back ^Amhome ^Am

^DmWe grew up ^Amquick ^GWe grew up ^Amstrong ^DmHoping that's ^Amenough to get us ^Ghome ^G

And it's a ^Glong ^Dmway back ^Amhome ^Am And it's a ^Glong ^Dmway back ^Amhome ^Am And it's a ^Glong ^Dmway back ^Amhome ^{Am G}Long ^Dmway back ^Amhome ^Am
