John Prine – My Darlin Hometown (Ukulele)

F                 Gm
Far away over the sea

          C                       F
There's a river that's calling to me

     F                   Gm
That river she runs all around

    C                        F
The place that I call my hometown

          F                         Gm
There's a valley on the side of the hill

    C                       F
And flowers on an old windowsill

  F                       Gm
A familiar old picture it seems

    C                           F
And I'll go there tonight in my dreams

           Bb
Where it's green in the summer

    F
And gold in the fall

    G7
Her eyes are as blue

       C
As the sky I recall

F                 Gm
Far away over the sea

          C                      F
There's a place at the table for me

      F                   Gm
Where laughter and music abound

     C                       F
Just waiting there in my hometown

    Bb
The river she freezes

             F
When there's snow on the ground

        G7
And the children can slide

       C
To the far side of town

F                 Gm
Far away far away me

C                      F
Hung up on a sweet memory

    F                      Gm
I'm lost and I wish I were found

       C                      F
In the arms of my darlin' hometown

         Bb
With the evening sun sittin'

       F
On the top of the hill

        G7 
And the mockingbird answering

    C    
The old chapel bell

F                 Gm
Far away over the sea

   C                   F
My heart is longing to be

      F                       Gm
And I wish I could lay myself down

       C                      F    F   Gm   C   F   
In the arms of my darlin' hometown
