[Verses]
A         Em           G          D            A      Em G D
Rollin' through these hills I've known I'd be comin’
A            Em   G        D             A  Em  G D
There ain't a man alive that likes to be alone
   A       Em    G             D       A   Em  G D
It's been a while since I seen my lady smile
 A     Em          G    D    A  Em  G D
Have I been have I been away so long
 
    G   D
I'm tired
     G   D
I am tired
 
A          Em
Can I come home for the summer
D               C
I could slow down for a little while
A          Em
Get back to lovin' each other
D               C                             A
Leave all those long and lonesome miles behind
 
A Em G D x2
 
A           Em          G             D                A      Em G D
Through the years I have learned some things worth the tellin'
A            Em               G                      D
And you'd be right in guessin' that each and every lesson they were 
A    Em G D
hard won
 
    G   D
I'm tired
     G   D
I am tired
 
A          Em
Can I come home for the summer
D               C
I could slow down for a little while
A           Em
Get back to lovin' each other
D               C                             A
Leave all those long and lonesome miles behind
 
A Em G D x4
 
A      Em       A      Em
You'll follow her wherever she goes
A   Em            D          C     A
You love her and you just wanted to know
A           Em         A      Em
That you'll follow her, you'll find a way
A          Em              D          C     A
'Cause you love her and you just wanted to know

Pretty perfect but the C/G in the chorus and the last verse just doesnt sound right ! try just a simple D chord, it works for me
