[Verse 1]
G                      C
Back in the days of my childhood

       G                           D
In the evening when everything was still

  G                             C
I used to sit and listen to the fox hounds

        G          D            G
With my dad in the old Kentucky hills
[Chorus]
G                      C

The road winds on up the hill
[tab]  G                             C
But there's no light in the window

        G          D            G
That shined long ago where I lived
[Verse 2]
G                      C
Soon my childhood days were over

       G                           D
I had to leave my old home

G                      C
For my dad and mom were called to heaven

        G          D            G
I was left in this world all alone
[Chorus]
G                      C
I'm on my way back to the old home
The road winds on up the hill
  G                             C
But there's no light in the window

        G          D            G
That shined long ago where I lived
[Verse 3]
G                      C
High in the hills of old Kentucky

       G                           D
Stands the fondest spot in my memory

  G                             C
I'm on my way back to the old home

        G          D            G
The light in the window I long to see
[Chorus]
G                      C
I'm on my way back to the old home

       G                           D
The road winds on up the hill

  G                             C
But there's no light in the window

        G          D            G
That shined long ago where I lived
