G
I left my old home in the mountains
D7
And the only friends I ever had
G C
And while I rambled this world over
D7 G
My heart felt so lonely and sad
[Chorus]
C G
I'm going back to the old home
D7
Back to the place I love so well
G
Where the sweet waters flow
C
And the wildflowers grow
D7 G
Back to the old home on the hill
[Verse]
I know that dear old mother's waiting
D7
Waiting alone on that hill
G C
With the silver in her hair and a twinkle in her eye
D7 G
In the old cabin home on the hill
[Chorus]
C G
I'm going back to the old home
D7
Back to the place I love so well
G
Where the sweet waters flow
C
And the wildflowers grow
D7 G
Back to the old home on the hill
[Verse]
Years have gone by since I saw her
D7
I've traveled many a mile
G C
But tonight there's a light in the window
D7 G
And she's waiting at the door with a smile
[Chorus]
C G
I'm going back to the old home
D7
Back to the place I love so well
G
Where the sweet waters flow
C
And the wildflowers grow
D7 G
Back to the old home on the hill
[Chorus]
C G
I'm going back to the old home
D7
Back to the place I love so well
G
Where the sweet waters flow
C
And the wildflowers grow
D7 G
Back to the old home on the hill
