D G D G
I crossed over every ocean and I've sailed the seven seas
D G D A

I've flown my plane to places where others seldom fly
D G D A
and I've sung my songs and made my friends and then said my goodbyes

D G D G
I'm back I'm back I'm back where I belong
D G D A
I'm back with all the folks I knew, where the call of home is strong

I can talk about the eskimos in the arctic cold

i've flown the river Rhine where the lorrelais fall

D G D G
Now I've seen the many wonders in the good old USA
D G D A
and I've sung my songs in Nashville and made movies in L.A

I've seen the rocky mountains and Boston in the fall
D G D A
and I met a million people I must say I love them all
