[Verse 1]
D
I'm goin' back to whur I come from
G D
Where the honeysuckle smells so sweet it durn near makes you sick
G D
I used to think my life was humdrum
G D G
But I sure have learned a lesson that is bound to stick
C G
There ain't no use of me pretendin'
A7 D
The city sure ain't no place for a guy like me to end in
G D
Goin' back to whur I come from
G D G
Whur the mockin' bird is singin' in the lilac bush
[Riff]
D G D G
[Verse 2]
G D
I used to go down to the station
G D
Every evenin' just to watch the Pullman train come rollin' in
G D
And then one night, that great temptation
G D G
Got the best of me and drove me to a life of sin
C G
I took my hat and fourteen dollars
A7 D
And I went through all the troubles of this life that always follers
G D
When you're rich and huntin' romance
G D G
But my huntin' days are over, I can tell you that
[Riff]
D G D G
[Verse 3]
G D
I met a man in Kansas City
G D
An' he winked at me and asked me if I'd like to step around
G D
And I said, "Yup! that's what I'm here fer"
G D G
And he said he'd take me to the hottest spots in town
C G
He mentioned things he'd have to fix up
A7 D
So he took my fourteen dollars, but there must have been a mix-up
G D
He's been gone since Thursday evenin'
G D G
And I've got a hunch I'll never see that guy no more
[Riff]
C G A7 D
G D G D G
[Verse 3]
G D
When I get old and have a grandson
G D
I can tell him 'bout my romance and then watch his eyes bug out
G D
But chances are he won't believe me
G D G
So he'll do the same darn thing when he's growed up, no doubt
C G
But he can't say I didn't warn him
A7 D
What will happen if he meets up with that city guy, goldarn him
G D
I'm goin' back to whur I come from
G D G
Whur the mockin' bird is singin' in the lilac bush
[Outro]
