Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][D][G][D][G][D][G][Bm][G][C][D]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Momma put a Bible in my [C]glove [D]box
[G]And a hot homemade apple
[C]pie [D]on the passenger seat
[G]She said, "You'll al[Bm]
ways be my [C]baby"[D]
She [G]planted a kiss and a [C]couple
[D]of tears on my cheek
[Em]Dad slipped me some traveling cash
Through a [D]map with it
highlighted right on the dash
And I [F]realized as I look back that

[Verse 2]
[G]They weren't just saying goodbye
[D]They weren't just seeing me off
[Em]They were just making sure that I
[C]don't forget where I'm from
[G]Momma loved and daddy worked
They [D]lived their lives just to make sure I
[C]know my [D]way [G]back home
[C][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]
And I can still [Bm]smell [G]momma's kit[C]chen[D]
[G]Feel eve[Bm]ry single pra[G]yer [C]she[D] says for me
[G]I can point these whe[Bm]els toward
[G]s that [C]sun[D]set
[G]Without a fear, without a doubt,
[C]daddy sai[D]d, "Go get that dream"
[Em]I left behind a pie crumb trail just in case[D] I get lost,
fall flat or fail
An[F]d if the wind should lead my sail

[Verse 4]
[G]They weren't just saying goodbye
[D]They weren't just seeing me off
[Em]They were just making sure that I
[C]don't forget where I'm from
[G]Momma loved and daddy worked
And they [D]lived their lives just
to make sure I [C]know
My way [F]back to the door
that's always open
To the light that's always on
[G]To the love that's always wai[D]ting
after being good [F]too [Em]long[Cm]
[D]Way too long

[Verse 5]
Now I [G]know they weren't
just saying goodbye
[D]They weren't just seeing me off
[Em]They were just making sure that I
[C]don't forget where I'm from
"Go [D]out there and do
your family proud son"
[G]Momma loved and daddy worked
They [D]lived their lives just
to make sure [C]I know
I'll [D]always [C]know my way [G]back[C][D]
[G]home [C](my way [D]bac[G]k)
Momma loved and daddy [Bm]worked[G][C][D]
[G]They lived their lives just to make sure I[C][D][G]
[C]kno[D]w (my way back)
