C
As my mind wanders back to the quaint little shack
G7 C
Where in childhood I used to play
There with mother and dad we were happy and glad
D7 G7
As we whiled the sweet moments away
C
We would all kneel in prayer and in reverence
F C
We would praise the redeemer on high
Now in sadness I pine for that old home of mine
G7 C
And I long for that mother’s love
G7
I’d like to go back to that quaint little tumbled down shack
C
Yes I’d like to spend a day where in heaven forever I’ll stay
F
But time won’t turn back we must travel till Jesus shall call
C G7 C
Then we’ll be happy in that land where no cabins fall
Though I drifted away from childhood’s sweet play
G7 C
I can still hear those voices sweet
They are calling me back to that quaint little shack
D7 G7
Where the circle will never more meet
C
But till that happy day up in heaven they say
F C
We would praise the redeemer on high
Now in sadness I pine for that old home of mine
G7 C
And I long for that mother’s love
G7
I’d like to go back to that quaint little tumbled down shack
C
Yes I’d like to spend a day where in heaven forever I’ll stay
F
But time won’t turn back we must travel till Jesus shall call
C G7 C
Then we’ll be happy in that land where no cabins fall
G7 C
In that land where no cabins fall
