[F] [G]

[G]
I was young when I left home, and I've been all [C] rambling round, [D] but I never wrote a letter
to my home, to my [G] home, Lord, Lord, to my [C] home, and I never [G] wrote a letter to my home.
It was just the other day I was bringing on [C] my pay, [G] when I met an old friend I used to [D] know,
said [G] your mama's dead and gone, baby sister's all gone [C] wrong, [Em] and your daddy [C] needs you home
[D] right away.
Not a shirt on [G] my back, not a penny to my [C] name, [Gm] Lord I can't [Cm] go home this way.

[D] [G]
If you miss the train tomorrow, count the days [C] I'm gone, you'll hear that whistle blow,
[D] hundred miles, hundred [G] miles, honey babe, Lord, [C] Lord, Lord, you'll hear that whistle blow,
hundred miles, [D]
and I'm playing on the track, mama coming would me [C] back, on [D] them trusses down by old
Jim McKay's.
When I pay the debt [G] I owe to the commissary [C] store, I will pawn my watch and chain
[D] and go home, go [G] home, Lord, Lord, [C] Lord, Lord, I will pawn my watch and chain [G] and go home.

[Bm] [D] [G]
Used to tell mama sometimes, when you see him [C] riding blind,
[D] gonna make me a home out in the wind,
in the wind, [G] Lord, Lord, in [C] the wind, gonna make me a home out in [D] the wind,
but I [G] don't like it in the wind, gonna go back home again, [C]
but I can't go home this [D]
way,
this [G] way, Lord, Lord, this [C] way, Lord, I can't go home [D] this way, this [G] way, Lord, Lord, this [C] way,
and I can't go home this [D] way.

[Dm] [G]
I was young when I left home and I've been all [C] rambling around,
[Dm] but I never wrote a letter to my home, to my [G] home, Lord, Lord, to my [C] home,
and I never wrote a letter to [G] my home.
