Song: -7 6 6 -6 -5 -5 6 -5 -5 5
Held on to hope like a noose, like a rope
-7 6 6 6 -6 -5 -5 6 -5 -5 5
God and medicine take no mercy on him
-6 -5 -5 5 5 -7 -6 -6 6
Poisoned his blood, and burned out his throat
-6 7 -6 6 -5
Enough is enough,
-6 -5 -6 6 -5 5
He's a long way from home

Days of my youth wasted on a selfish fool
Who ran for the hills from the hand you were dealt
I flew far away, as far as I could go
Your time is running out
And I'm a long way from home

Laid up in bed, you were laid up in bed
Holding the pain like you're holding your breath
I prayed you could sleep, sleep like a stone
You're right next to me
But you're a long way from home

Hospital gowns never fit like they should
We yelled at the nurse, didn't do any good
More morphine, the last words you moaned
At last I was sure
That you weren't far away from home
