A week ago, there was a request posted for John Denver tunes. Thinking that songs like Country Roads, Annies's song and Leaving on a Jet plane are well known, I'll post some other nice tunes. Here's the first one: Back Home again John Denver E E7 A 1) There's a storm across the valley, clouds are rollin' in 2) He's an hour away from ridin' on your prayers up in the sky B7 E 1) the afternoorn is heavy on your shoul-ders. 2) and ten days on the road are barely gone. E E7 A 1) There's a truck out on the four lane, a mile or more away 2) There's a fire softly burning; supper's on the stove B7 E 1) the whinin' of his wheels just makes it colder. 2) but it's the light in your eyes that makes him warm. A B7 E7 Chorus: Hey, it's good to be back home a-gain A B7 E7 A Sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend B7 E7 Yes, 'n, hey it's good to be back home again 3) After all the news to tell him: how's you spend your time? And what's the latest thing the neighbors say and your mother called last friday; "Sunshine" made her cry and you felt the baby move just yesterday. Chorus A B7 E A Bridge: And oh, the time that I can lay this tired old body down F#m B7 E E7 and feel your fingers feather soft up-on me A B7 E A the kisses that I live for, the love that lights my way F#m A B7 the happiness that livin' with you brings me. 4) It's the sweetest thing I know of, just spending time with you it's the little things that make a house a home. Like a fire softly burning and supper on the stove. And the light in your eyes that makes me warm.

About the artist behind Back Home Again Chords:
Denver's songs were suffused with a deep and abiding love of the natural world. Songs such as "Take Me Home, Country Roads" (1971), "Leaving on a Jet Plane", "Calypso" (1975), "Thank God I'm a Country Boy", and "Rocky Mountain High" (1973) are popular worldwide. Denver has been referred to as "The Poet For the Planet", "Mother Nature's Son" (based on The Beatles song he covered) and "A Song's Best Friend".
