Lookin' out of my window pane, tears mingling with the rain
G D Em C
I'm so lonesome, I could cry just like old Hank
G D Em C
Staring down on the city street, feeling empty and incomplete
G D Em C
There's a place I need to be to fill my tank
C
A place I can go where I can be free where I can be happy and just --- be me
G D Em C G D
Home, where the warm winds blowing and the rivers flowing a- long
Em C
Like a lazy bum in the mid-day sun
G D Em C
And I've gone fishin' with my pole at the fishin' hole
C D
Where I can lay down my heavy load, and know that I am always --- welcome
G D Em C
I left home I was 17, I had a lot of am- bitious dreams
G D Em C
See a lot of those dreams come true, I've had good luck
G D Em C
I'm not complaining that's for sure, I got a lot to be thankful for
G D Em C
One of those things is the magic door that opens up
C
Back to the time when I was a kid to the sound of the crickets and the Carry Dees
G D Em C
It's called home on the front porch swinging and fern pots hanging
G D Em C
Home with the church bells ringing and voices singing
G D Em C
Old songs that's in my mind like a stitch in time
C D
Where the tea is sweet and the love's complete for me, I wanna go
Am G D
I often think about where I have been
Am C D
Where I am going and lots a- bout when I think about
G D Em C
Home, where the soul find comfort and the heart find pleasure
G D Em C
Home, where the depths of love is hard to measure
G D Em C
It's home, I hear you callin', I hear you callin'
C D
I'll never be lost as long as I know there's a place like that where I can go
C D
Where I can restore my weary soul on the mountain slopes of the south "Blue Smoke"
G D Em C G D Em C
Of home, home sweet home
G D Em C
Home back to the hills of the Whip-poor-wills
G D Em C
Home with the fire flies blinking and the night stars twinklin'
G D Em C
Home, honeysuckle vine and musky fine wine at
G D Em C
Home, where the ginseng grows in the shady groves of
G D Em C
Home, with family and friends and joy that never end
G D Em C G
Home, there's no place like it, no place like it, home -----
