[Verse 1]
   G         D7   C                     G
In South Carolina   there are many tall pines
      G        D7       C                 D
I remember the oak tree   that we used to climb
    D7           C        D7            G
But now when I'm lonesome,  I always pretend
G                    C    D7           G     C  G
That I'm getting the feel   of hickory wind

[Verse 2] 
  G           D7      C              G 
I started out younger   at most everything
        G          D7         C                      D 
All the riches and pleasures,   what else could life bring?
       D7       C            D7               G
But it makes me feel better    each time it begins
G          C     D7        G     C  G
Callin' me home,   hickory wind

[Verse 3] 
  G           D7      C                  G 
It's hard to find out   that trouble is real
     G        D7    C                 D 
In a far away city,   with a far away feel
       D7       C            D7               G
But it makes me feel better    each time it begins
G          C     D7        G     C  G
Callin' me home,   hickory wind

[Coda]
      G          C     D7         G     C  G
Keeps callin' me home,    hickory wind
