[Em] [E]
When I was just a little [A] boy, that was a [E] long time back,
I'd go down to the tadpole [A] hole down by the [E] railroad track,
Lord, [A] Lord, down by the [E] road track.
[A] I'd catch me a [E] handful of crawdads [A] and I'd put them in an [E] old toad sack.
[A] I wouldn't [E] trade one single [D] memory for a [C#] paycheck [Am] pad of [B] that.
[E] No!
[Em] Oh, Lord, from [A] Arkansas, you know my daddy was a [E] leader man.
Cut my teeth on [Em] brimstone and [A] fire, and my mama was the [E] finest in this land.
[A] I said, the finest in [E] this land.
Every Sunday morning [A] she'd say, [G] Jesus, hold [E] my hand.
I'd hear my dad was singing, Hallelujah, [D] I [A] love that [E] Godforsaken man.
[D] Take [A] me [E] back to the old home.
[D] [A] Take me back to [E] where I used to belong.
[D] [A] Take me [E] back to the old home.
[G] I'm tired and weary [D] and I've been on [A] this highway [E] too long.
Making front porch [G] [A] conversation, passing [E] away the time,
wondering if [A] tomorrow [E] rain or shine, or rain or shine.
[A] I [G] think I'll [E] go down to the [A] river and [G] drop my [E] fishing line,
[A] but [G] every [E] time I lay my head, [D] [E] [D] take [A] me [E] back to the old home.
[D] [Bm] [A] Take me back to [E] where I [D] [E] used to belong.
[D] [A] Take me back [E] to the old home.
[G] I'm tired and weary [D] and I've been [A] on this highway [E] too long.
Oh, [D] [A] I'm [E] taking you [D] [E]
[D] [A] [E]
[G]
[D] [D#] [A] [E] home.
