This melody attempts to capture the emotions of our journey home, whether physically or spiritually. The first section is the feeling of longing and yearning. The second part is the excitement of being on the road and the anticipation of seeing our family, and ending with the sweetness and relieve at finally being back where we feel familiar, secure and loved. The song is composed in key of F and both single-strung and double-strung versions are included. No lever/pedal changes required.
