Oft' my thoughts drift back to childhood

       F               C
To the time when I was free

     F                 C
As I played before the fireside

          G7               C
Around my darling mother's knee


   
There's a blessed home up yonder

         F                  C
Where my loved one wait for me

             F    C
I saw mother in a vision

         G7                C
Kneeling there to pray for me 


                        
Then one day our mother left us

      F                  C
Daddy said she'd gone to rest

         F               C
Oh how I miss my darling mother
  
       G7             C
As she held me to her breast



There's a blessed home up yonder

         F                  C
Where my loved one wait for me

             F    C
I saw mother in a vision

         G7                C
Kneeling there to pray for me


                              
Some sweet day I'll meet you mother

            F              C
Your little boy is commin' home

           F             C
To see you as in days of childhood

            G7             C
The one you loved and left alone



There's a blessed home up yonder

         F                  C
Where my loved one wait for me

             F    C
I saw mother in a vision

         G7                C
Kneeling there to pray for me
