[Intro]
F
[Verse 1]
N.C. Bb F Well, I've been a traveler most of my life C F I never took a home and I never took a wife Bb F Ran away young and decided to roam
N.C.
I wanna see my mama and my daddy back home
[Chorus]
Bb F Home, where the river runs cold C F The water tastes good and the winters ain't cold Bb F Home, where the trees grow tall C7 F The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call
[Verse 2]
F Bb F I remember stories that my daddy used to tell C7 F My eyes would get big, and his chest would swell Bb F I could sit for hours and listen with glee
N.C.
How I used to be when he's a boy like me
[Chorus]
Bb F Home, where the river runs cold C F The water tastes good and the winters ain't cold Bb F Home, where the trees grow tall C7 F The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call
[Verse 3]
F Bb F Well, mama dear, mama do you still love your boy C F After all my roamin' can I still bring you joy Bb F Mom wrote a letter, got it not long ago
N.C.
She said "get on home, I'm missin' you so
[Chorus]
Bb F Home, where the river runs cold C F The water tastes good and the winters ain't cold Bb F Home, where the trees grow tall C7 F The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call
[Outro]
