Tupelos Too Far

Kate Campbell

 D
 I can see Saltillo Street

And the house where I was born

I can hear gospel songs

From the church on Sunday morn
 GD
 Saturday nights 'round the radio
 GD
 Life was simple then
 GD
But this road I'm on won't take me there
 EmA
 You can't go back again
 GD
 I wish I could take Route 78
 EmD
And be there in no time
 GD
 Rest beneath the sweet gum trees
 EmA
Leave all my cares behind
 GD
But Tupelo's too far
 D
 I never dreamed I would be

A king much less a star

And I never knew that what I loved

Could also break my heart
 GD
 I always thought if I just sang
 EmD
 Everything would be alright
 EmD
 And I don't know what went wrong
 EmA
But I'm lonesome tonight
 GD
 I wish I could take Route 78
 EmD
And be there in no time
 GD
 Rest beneath the sweet gum trees
 EmA
Leave all my cares behind
 GD
But Tupelo's too far
 AD
 Tupelo's too far
