The Carter Family – Homestead On The Farm (Guitar)

         A               D                A    D A
Well, I won-der how the old folks are at home

         A               A7               D   D/E
Well, I won-der if they miss me when I'm gone

   D                               A           G F#7
I won-der if they pray, for their boy who went a-way

     B7                               E7     D/F# E7
And left his dear old par-ents all a-lone...

           A                D               A    D A
You could hear the cat-tle low-ing in the lane,

          A                 A7                  D     D/E
You could al-most see the fields of blue-grass green.

          D                  A                              G   F#7
You could al-most hear them cry, as they kis-sed their boy good-bye,

  B7              E7                A    D A
I won-der how the old folks are at home.

        A              D                 A    D A
Just a vill-age and a home-stead on the farm,

      A                  A7                  D    D/E
And a mot-her's love to shield you from all harm;

   D                             A                 G   F#7
A mot-her's love so true, and a sweet-heart brave and true,

   B7                               E7      D/F# E7
A vill-age and a home-stead on the farm.

           A                D               A    D A
You could hear the cat-tle low-ing in the lane,

          A                 A7                  D     D/E
You could al-most see the fields of blue-grass green.

          D                  A                              G   F#7
You could al-most hear them cry, as they kis-sed their boy good-bye,

  B7              E7                A    D A
I won-der how the old folks are at home.
