Patty Loveless

“On Your Way Home”

written by Matraca Berg and Ronnie Samoset

Capo II

Intro: while holding D chord, pick (D G B G B G B G) x 2 (this basic pattern is

also used on the chords throughout the song, if you’d rather pick individual

notes than play chords)

(D) I heard you slippin’ down the hall

Tell me did, your shadow trip and fall

Over (G) you, babe, movin’ that (D) slowly

Did you think you could waste my time

Come on messin’ round with my mind

Did you (G) think you could?

Well you don’t (D) know me.

(A) Where’d you get that alibi

Did it fall out of the midnight sky

or did you (G) find it on the side of the (D) road?

(Tell me), (A) did you have to make a deal

or wrassle for control of the wheel

from your (G) conscience?

I’d like to (A) know—where do you (Bm) go (G)

on your way (D) home?

(D) You know some day I’d like to fly

Like a bat out of Nashville why

don’t you (G) help me and tell me the (D) truth?

‘Cause the truth is gonna set you free

if you keep on a-lyin’ to me

I might (G) stay right here, just to spite (D) you.

(A) Where’d you get that alibi

Did it fall out of the midnight sky

or did you (G) find it on the side of the (D) road?

Tell me, (A) did you have to make a deal

or wrassle for control of the wheel

from your (G) conscience?

I’d like to (A) know—where do you (Bm) go (G) (D)

where do you (Bm) go (G) (D)

where do you (Bm) (G) go on your way (D) home?

(D) On your way (G) home. (D) Mmmm (G) Mmmm (D)

(A) Where’d you get that alibi

Did it drop out of the midnight sky

or did you (G) find it lyin’ on the side of the (D) road?

(A) Was it ever a long, long drive,

did you ever stop once to cry?

Was I (G) worth it? I think I (A) know.

Where do you (Bm) go? (G) (D)

Where do you (Bm) go? (G) (D)

Where do you (Bm) go (G) on your way (D) home.

On your way home. (D)
