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

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