Chorus:
GOmaAha DyouG've been weigAhing heavy onD my mind G
I guess i never really lAeft at all D
I'm turning Gall those roads i'Ave walked around thDe other way G
And coming back to you,OmahAa D
Verse 1:
Omaha,NebGraska waAsn't good enouDgh for me G
I always thought i was the Aroamin' kind D
With a pocket fGull of dreams anAd my one shirDt on my back G
I left there looking for some things to find A
Verse 2:
Rode my thumb to GSan Francisco,i Aworked doDwn by the bay G
Got some schoolin' paid for bAy the law D
The hardest tGhing i learned waAs there ain't noD easy way G
To get ahead behind those county walls A
Verse 3:
So it's so long CaGlifornia,iA reckon' i'll be Dmoving on G
I'm leaving even if iA had to crawl D
I got some looGse ends arouAnd that i leDft undone G
Waiting there for me in AOmaha D
Chorus.
