[Verse 1]
G
I'm goin' back to whur I come from
C G
Where the honeysuckle smells so sweet it durn near makes you sick
C G
I used to think my life was humdrum
C G C
But I sure have learned a lesson that is bound to stick
F C
There ain't no use of me pretendin'
D7 G
The city sure ain't no place for a guy like me to end in
C G
Goin' back to whur I come from
C G C
Whur the mockin' bird is singin' in the lilac bush
[Riff]

[Verse 2]
C G
I used to go down to the station
C G
Every evenin' just to watch the Pullman train come rollin' in
C G
And then one night, that great temptation
C G C
Got the best of me and drove me to a life of sin
F C
I took my hat and fourteen dollars
D7 G
And I went through all the troubles of this life that always follers
C G
When you're rich and huntin' romance
C G C
But my huntin' days are over, I can tell you that
[Riff]
G C G C
[Verse 3]
C G
I met a man in Kansas City
C G
An' he winked at me and asked me if I'd like to step around
C G
And I said, "Yup! that's what I'm here fer"
C G C
And he said he'd take me to the hottest spots in town
F C
He mentioned things he'd have to fix up
D7 G
So he took my fourteen dollars, but there must have been a mix-up
C G
He's been gone since Thursday evenin'
C G C
And I've got a hunch I'll never see that guy no more
[Riff]

[Verse 3]
C G
When I get old and have a grandson
C G
I can tell him 'bout my romance and then watch his eyes bug out
C G
But chances are he won't believe me
C G C
So he'll do the same darn thing when he's growed up, no doubt
F C
But he can't say I didn't warn him
D7 G
What will happen if he meets up with that city guy, goldarn him
C G
I'm goin' back to whur I come from
C G C
Whur the mockin' bird is singin' in the lilac bush
