(Stephen Mabry) Sep.03 2001 Did not find a listing for this so I sat down and figured it out. This is also one of my favorite Kate Wolf songs. Back Roads By: Kate Wolf From:1976 Album..Back Roads No capo:  Key of G Verse 1 I’ll take the backroads home through the open country side. Letting things slip by.......in drawn out time...I’ll take the long way home on the backroads of this life ..taking time to see what goes by.     Chorus Coming and going there’s no dividing line. What you’re headed for someone’s left behind.....And the shortest road ain’t always the best. Sometimes let a backroad take you home Verse 2 A back road is so easy it just rambles on and on. Take it or leave it....as rolls along.   Drifts through things it cannot change and doesn’t even try. Wouldn’t that be something for you and I.      Chorus Coming and going there’s no dividing line. What you’re headed for someone’s left behind.....And the shortest road ain’t always the best. Sometimes let a backroad take you home Verse 3 Anyplace you’re bound you’ll get there someday. You’re the one who chooses...what you see along the way. And when the heartaches seem too much for you to bear. There’s a back road winding everywhere.      Chorus Coming and going there’s no dividing line. What you’re headed for someone’s left behind.....And the shortest road ain’t always the best. Sometimes let a backroad take you home Define:Bdim E--4-- B--3-- G--4-- D--3-- A--x-- E--x-- Comments corrections additions for fingerstyle please E-mail me at
