Chords in this song

Strum

 Not  so long ago I set out on this road
 With  my friends and my  companions by  my side
 And  I think of you wherever I do go
 I'm  a rambler,  I ain't hard  to satisfy.
 Won't  be long till I am home  again with you
 Just  a few  more miles to go
 Won't  be long  till I can get  back on my own
 Won't  be long  till I can spend  my time with you
 
 
 
 
 
 In the airport I'm standing in a line
 Search my pockets, check me out and I'm alright
 It's not hard but it ain't easy all the time
 To be in some other town most every night
 Oh, I miss the singing from porch banjo nights
 And when friends come by to pass the time away
 And when the winds that chill the Bershires in the night
 Heading east through Massachusetts toward the bay.

Heading east through Massachusetts toward the bay.
