F# B C# C#7 F# X2
[Verse 1]
F# B
Nestled in the heart of the Tennessee hills
C# C#7 F#
Midst peaceful pines, midst the rocks and the rills
F# B
There stands my old homestead of long, long ago
C# C#7 F#
And it brings back fond memories of the girl that I loved so
[Verse 2]
F# B
I courted a maiden so sweet and so fair
C# C#7 F#
With heavenly eyes and the chestnut brown hair
F# B
She told me she loved me and said that she'd be mine
C# C#7 F#
But I went away leaving her there behind
[Instrumental]
F# B C# C#7 F# X2
[Verse 3]
F# B
I'll tell you the reason that I left her there
C# C#7 F#
To roam this old world with its sorrows and cares
F# B
I saw her one night in the arms of a man
C# C#7 F#
Hugging and kissing as true lovers can
[Verse 4]
F# B
Then I went to my home with a heart full of woe
C# C#7 F#
I packed by belongings, de-termined to go
F# B
For many long years, this old world I did roam
C# C#7 F#
With thoughts of my darling, my sweetheart, my own
[Instrumental]

[Verse 5]
F# B
While dining one day in a little country town
C# C#7 F#
G# stranger walked in and he chanced to set down
F# B
While talking of loved ones I happened to find
C# C#7 F#
That his sister was that old sweetheart of mine
[Verse 6]
F# B
When he heard my story to me he then said
C# C#7 F#
The one you left there has a long time been dead
F# B
She waited so long for the day that you'd return
C# C#7 F#
But why you had left her she never did learn
[Verse 7]
F# B
Now I was the man that you saw that fatal night
C# C#7 F#
Wrapped in the arms of my sister so tight
F# B
She loved you so dearly but you broke her heart
C# C#7 F#
For stranger, from her ever more you must part
[Instrumental]
