words and music by Mitch McVicker and Brad Layher

Intro/Turnaround/Outro:  (pick-up - F-Em-Dm)  C-Dm-Em-F   C-Dm-Em-G

         C           Dm
Well my home is far away,
        Em                     F
But it won't take long to get there
         C           Dm
Yeah my home is far away,
        Em                  G
But it won't take long to arrive
    C           Dm
My home is far away,
        Em                      F
But it won't take long to get there
           C               Dm           Em
So I will walk, Yes I will run, until I fly
 G                C    Dm-Em-F           
And it won't take long
            C     Dm-Em-G
Won't take long

           C             Dm
Well the sea is deep and blue
         Em               F
And the tide goes up and down,
        C              Dm
Oh the sea is deep and blue
              Em        G
And the moon pulls its chain
          C              Dm
Yeah the sea is deep and blue
         Em               F
And the tide goes up and down,
       C           Dm
So it goes, so it stays,
        Em                G       C-Dm-Em-F
So the shores are simply changed

         C           Dm
And the night is so black
        Em        F        Am-Dm-Em
And the sky is so big
         F                C
But the stars show their faces
 G/B               F
Though they look still
          Am                  Dm
They are twirling, they are swirling,
           Em     F      C-Dm-Em-F   C-Dm-Em-G   C-Dm-Em-F   C-Dm-Em
They are whirling ... 







        C           Dm
And my home is far away
        Em                     F
But it won't take long to get there
    C           Dm
My home is far away,
                   Em      G
But it won't take long to arrive
    C            Dm
My homes so far away,
        Em                     F
But it won't take long to get there
           C           Dm           Em 
So I will walk, I will run, until I fly
 G        
And it won't take long
               C      Dm-Em-F
It won't take long

                  C    Dm-Em-G
No it won't take long
                  C    Dm-Em-F     C-Dm-Em-G   C-Dm-Em-F-C
No it won't take long
