[G] _ _ _ _ _ It was on a day when soldiers [C] rode to land
To those they loved, [D] their mothers' wives and sweethearts [G] far away
When a fair hearted boy sat dreaming of [C] a far off southern town
[D] Of a dark-eyed maid [G] who's waiting day by day
While the bandits play in [C] Dixie, I'm humming home sweet home
[D] It takes me back to Georgia, though I'm far [G] across the pond _
Once again beside the river with [C] my Mary dear I roam
[D] While the bandits play in Dixie, I'm humming [G] home sweet home
[C] Be it ever [G] so humble, _ [D] no [G] place like home
Be [C] it ever [G] so _ humble, [D] no [G] place like home _
They _ [C] _ _ [G] _ _ _

[D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
found within his pocket [C] a blood-stained little note
[D] A bullet hole that pierced [G] through and through
_ It begins, darling Mary, if [C] I don't come back again
Just [D] remember that my last thoughts [G] were of you
_ While the bandits play in Dixie, [C] I'm humming home sweet home
[D] It takes me back to Georgia, though I'm far across [G] the pond
Once again beside the river with my [C] Mary dear I roam
[D] While the bandits play in Dixie, I'm humming home [G] sweet home
[C] Be it ever [G] so humble, _ [D] no place [G] like home
Be [C] it ever [G] so humble, _ [D] no place [G] like home
