Where are the hearts
        D            A
Once so happy and so free
    A
The children so dear
       Bm           E
That I held upon my knee
A
Gone to the shore
         D                  A
Where my soul has longed to go
  E                 D      A  D
I hear those gentle voices calling
A   E     A
Old Black Joe

                  A
(Eyes are coming) Joe's are coming
       D               A
For my head is bending low
  E                 D      A  D
I hear those gentle voices calling
