[Verse]
G
I left my old home in the mountains

                            D7
And the only friends I ever had

    G                          C
And while I rambled this world over

   D7                       G
My heart felt so lonely and sad
[Chorus]
C                     G
I'm going back to the old home

                            D7
Back to the place I love so well

           G
Where the sweet waters flow

                    C
And the wildflowers grow

D7                          G
Back to the old home on the hill
[Verse] I know that dear old mother's waiting
                      D7
Waiting alone on that hill

         G                        C
With the silver in her hair and a twinkle in her eye

       D7                    G
In the old cabin home on the hill
[Chorus]
C                     G
I'm going back to the old home

                            D7
Back to the place I love so well

           G
Where the sweet waters flow

                    C
And the wildflowers grow

D7                          G
Back to the old home on the hill
[Verse] Years have gone by since I saw her
                     D7
I've traveled many a mile

      G                            C
But tonight there's a light in the window

          D7                         G
And she's waiting at the door with a smile
[Chorus]
C                     G
I'm going back to the old home

                            D7
Back to the place I love so well

           G
Where the sweet waters flow

                    C
And the wildflowers grow

D7                          G
Back to the old home on the hill
[Chorus]
C                     G
I'm going back to the old home

                            D7
Back to the place I love so well

           G
Where the sweet waters flow

                    C
And the wildflowers grow

D7                          G
Back to the old home on the hill
