[Chorus]
G                     C
Oh why oh why did you wander

   G                D7
Oh why did you ever roam

G                                 C
When you know that we always were happy

    G            D7           G
All alone in our old mountain home
[Verse 1]
                                  C
It was down in the old Cumberland Mountains

G                    D7
Down in the hills of Tennessee

   G                       C
As she waited alone in the moonlight

       G          D7             G
It was there that she waited for me
[Chorus]
G                     C
Oh why oh why did you wander

   G                D7
Oh why did you ever roam

G                                 C
When you know that we always were happy

    G            D7           G
All alone in our old mountain home
[Verse 2]
                               C
Oh why did you leave me little darling

G                    D7
Why did you leave me alone

G                                  C
For you knew I'd be lonely without you

    G            D7           G
All alone in our old mountain home
[Chorus]
G                     C
Oh why oh why did you wander

   G                D7
Oh why did you ever roam

G                                 C
When you know that we always were happy

    G            D7           G
All alone in our old mountain home
[Verse 3]
                               C
Now I hope you will always be happy

G                       D7
No matter where you may roam

G                               C
And I hope to be with you up in heaven

      G           D7           G
As we were in our old mountain home
[Chorus]
G                     C
Oh why oh why did you wander

   G                D7
Oh why did you ever roam

G                                 C
When you know that we always were happy

    G            D7           G
All alone in our old mountain home
