From the album- 'Gunfighter Ballads and trail songs' [Introduction] G7 C [Verse 1]
C                   F                        C
I see a candlelight down in the little green valley

              G7                               C
Where Morning Glory vines are twining round my door

         C                        F                        C 
Oh how I wish I were there again, down in the little green valley

                G7                                C
That's where my homesick heart will trouble me no more     

             F                            C
There's only one thing ever gives me consolation

               C                                   G7
And that's the thought that I'll be going back someday

          C                         F                         C
And every night down upon my knees, I pray the Lord to please take me

             G7                           C
Back to that little old green valley far away
[Instrumental] G7 C [Verse 2]
C                    F                        C
I hear a mockingbird down in the little green valley

             G7                             C
He's singing out a song of welcome just for me

            C                         F                        C
And someone waits by the garden gate, down in the little green valley

           G7                            C
When I get back again how happy she will be

         F                                     C
And by a little babbling brook once more we'll wander

         C                                 G7
And in a shady nook we'll dream the hours away

           C                          F                         C
And I will leave all my cares behind, go where I know I'll find sunshine

             G7                          C
Back to that little old green valley far away
