- Verse:
- Ev -'ry roll -ing stone
gets to feel a -lone When home, sweet home is far -a -way.
- I'm a roll -ing stone who's
been so a -lone Un -til to -day.

- Chorus:
- Gon -na take a Sen -ti -ment
-al Jour -ney, Gon -na set my heart at ease,
- Gon -na make a Sen -ti -ment
-al Jour -ney To re -new old mem -o -ries.
- Got my bag, I got my res
-er -va -tion, Sent each dime I could af -ford.
- Like a child in wild an
-ti -ci -pa -tion, Long to hear that "All a -board."
- Sev -en, that's the time
we leave, at sev -en. I'll be wait -in' up for Heav -en,
- Count -in' ev -'ry mile
of rail -road track that takes me back.
- Nev -er thought my heart
could be so "yearn -y." Why did I de -cide to roam?
- Got -ta take this Sen -ti
-ment -al Jour -ney, Sen -ti -ment -al Jour -ney Home.
