[Verse 1]
E                     A          
  Rickety fence and a rocking 
   B
chair
A
  The smell of my father's pipe
E                          A     
  A cackling goose in the summer 
    B
air
A
  The garden is green and ripe

E                  A        B
  Suddenly now I'm far away
A               A
  Even if in my mind
E                     A       B
  I'm listening to my mama saying
                       A  B
  "If you can find the time


[Chorus]
A           E     D         E   
  "Come home, come home and rest
   A    E D E
 awhile
A          E     D         E    
  Come home, come home and rest 
A       E D E
awhile
A       B       E
Get on home to Shiloh"
     A
The farther I have wandered off
    A                       E
The fonder I have grown, Shiloh
       A
Yeah, all the while I find a smile
A
Thinkin' about my home

The autumn breeze is calling me away
A                      E
Calling me home to Shiloh

[Verse 2]
E                     A          
  Over the ocean the soldier 
   B
sailed
A
  The battle is finally won
E                            A   
  His mother is pressed up 
       B
against the railing
A
  Trying to find her son
E                         A      
  Well, suddenly now she sees a 
   B
face
                A
  Easy to recognize
E                               
  It's been years to wait for the 
   A            B
sweet embrace
A
  Holding him as she cries
               B                E
"You'd better get on home to Shiloh"


[Chorus]
     A
The farther that you wander off
    A                        E
The fonder you will grow, Shiloh
       A
Yeah, all the while he found a smile
A
Thinkin' about his home
  B
A sweet reunion coming through in 
waves
A                      E
Calling him home to Shiloh

A                      E    D   
  Now, I've been thinkin' about 
        E
my home
A               E       D       
  I've never been but I will, I 
     E
know
A             E        D          E
  Meadow green and the river wide
A            E        D            E
  Valley deep and the mountain high
A                E       D      
  The saints of old are singing 
     E
now (Shiloh)
A             E       D         
  My ears are ringing with the 
      E
sound (Shiloh)
A              E         D      
  But greater still, as clear as
      E
 day (Shiloh)
A        E      D             E
  I can hear my Savior saying
A        E      D             E
  I can hear my Savior saying
A        E      D           E
  I can hear my Savior say


A           E     D         E   
  "Come home, come home and rest
   A    E D E
 awhile     So yah you do
A             E     D         E 
  So Come home, come home and 
   A       E D E
rest awhile      La la la
