[Verse 1]
         D                           A
Here I'm thinking of you, while here all alone
                                        E
I'm wishing and longing for you and for home
    A                         D
I'd give this whole world, if I could only say
    A                   E           A
I'm climbin' that hill, headed that way

[Chorus]
                               D
For I'm lonesome and blue, for some place to roam
      A                          B7       A/E
And I wish it could be, down the old road to home

[Verse 2]
A          D               A
With a troubled mind and a heart full of pain
                                               E
I've searched the whole world, for fortune and fame
        A                   D
But I'm longing to be, with you once again
   A
So we could stroll down, old mem'ry lane

[Chorus]

For I'm lonesome and blue, for some place to roam
      A                          E           A
And I wish it could be, down the old road to home

[Verse 3]
          D                    A
There's a little red house, on top of a hill
                               E
Not very far from an old syrup mill
    A                       D
And I'd give this world, if I could only say
    A                   E           A
I'm climbing that hill, headed that way

And I wish it could be, down the old road to home
