[Verse 1]
Bm           C               G
  and in the midst of the explosion comin' down 
Bm         C                G
  you sit barefoot on your porch 
Bm             C              G             C
  and all the times you'd say we'd be sorry now 
             G        D         G
but I'm not sorry now, I'm not sorry now 

Bm          C                 G
  you were talkin' 'bout the cornfields passin' by 
Bm         C              G
  out the window of the bus 
Bm             C                          G                  C
  and all the times you swore that you'd get back there somehow 
             G          D                   C
that's just talkin' loud, never thought I'd be here now 


[Chorus]
    C                   G
so hey there, Sister Nebraska 
 C                             D
sittin' there, sweetly pigeon-toed 
             G Em      C
it's been a long cold winter 
D               G   C  G  D
now I'm comin' home 


[Verse 2]
Bm     C               G
  California's just a memory I've left behind 
Bm     C             G
  Colorado come and gone 
Bm             C              G               C
  the setting sun paints the rearview mirror red 
             G           D
as we start headin' south 
            G
it'll be any day now 

Bm           C            G 
  mountains fall away to leave us on the plains 
Bm       C              G
  as we relax into the ride 
Bm               C                     G               C
  and all those unpaid bills, well, I left them all behind 
               G          D
cause I'm not turnin' back 
        G
all my bags are packed 


[Chorus]
    C                   G
so hey there, Sister Nebraska 
 C                             D
sittin' there, sweetly pigeon-toed 
             G Em      C
it's been a long cold winter 
D               G   C  G  D
now I'm comin' home

[Verse 3]
Bm         C                G 
  this is gone and we've returned to what we left 
Bm           C                G
  turned to pictures packed away 
Bm            C
  and I will call you up and say: 
 G                  C 
"ain't this life a riot?" 
             G         D
and you will understand 
             C     G
and you will understand 


[Chorus]
    C                   G
so hey there, Sister Nebraska 
 C                             D

D               G   C  G  D
now I'm comin' home 
D               G   C  G  D
now I'm comin' home
