Chords

*Intro is played in the song as a guitar instrumental, so chords are my best attempt to go along with that *The timing is insanely hard so listen to the original to try and figure it out, also watch the key changes [Intro] A E A B E E E A B A B [Verse 1]
E                     A             B
  Rickety fence and a rocking chair

  Suddenly now I'm far away

A               A
  Even if in my mind

E                     A       B
  I'm listening to my mama saying

Get on home to Shiloh"

     A
The farther I have wandered off

The fonder I have grown, Shiloh

Yeah, all the while I find a smile

  His mother is pressed up against the railing

A
  Trying to find her son

E                         A         B
  Well, suddenly now she sees a face

  Easy to recognize

E                                  A            B

Calling him home to Shiloh
