He grew up in a home
Where the green grass grows
Down in Texas
C forty acre slice of heaven
C boy could roam
Cnd when the towers fell
He soldiered off to hell in Bagdad
Cnd though he made it back
He never quite made it home
Cnd he's Homeless on the Range
Like a tumbleweed
Driftin' 'cross the plains
Winds blow, shift and change
Cs dark memories
Come pourin' down like rain
Cnd these blue skies
Deep and wide
Leave him feelin'
Homeless on the Range
Now he's driftin' with the wind
Tryin' to find himself again
But he's loosin'
The world keeps turnin'
But he's barely hangin' on
You'll see him at the mission
Or at the river fishin' for somethin'
To ease the pain
When the night is long
Cnd he's Homeless on the Range
Like a tumbleweed
Driftin' 'cross the plains
Winds blow, shift and change
Cs thoughts of home
Come pourin' down like rain
Cnd these blue skies
Deep and wide
Leave him feelin'
Homeless...
Cnd now the war is over
Cnd the healing has begun
But somewhere back in Texas
The battle rages on
Cnd he's Homeless on the Range
Longing for the green, green grass
Of home again
Winds blow, shift and change
Cs thoughts of home
Come pourin' down like rain
Cnd these blue skies
Deep and wide
Leave him feelin'
Homeless on the Range
