Home Chords & Lyrics - Dolly Parton

[G]Lookin' out of my [D]window pane, [Em]tears mingling [C]with the rain
[G]I'm so lonesome, [D]I could cry just [Em]like old [C]Hank
[G]Staring down on the [D]city street, [Em]feeling empty and [C]incomplete
[G]There's a place I [D]need to be to [Em]fill my [C]tank

A [C]place I can go where I can be free where I can be happy and just --- be me

[G]Home, [D]where the [Em]warm winds blowing and the [C]rivers flowing a- [G]long [D]
Like a [Em]lazy bum in the [C]mid-day sun
And I've [G]gone [D]fi[Em]shin' with my pole at the fi[C]shin' hole
Where [C]I can lay down my heavy load, and [D]know that I am always --- welcome

[G]I left home I was [D]17, [Em]I had a lot of am- [C]bitious dreams
[G]See a lot of those [D]dreams come true, I've [Em]had good [C]luck
[G]I'm not complaining [D]that's for sure, [Em]I got a lot to be [C]thankful for
[G]One of those things is the [D]magic door that [Em]opens [C]up

[C]Back to the time when I was a kid to the sound of the crickets and the Carry Dees

It's called [G]home [D]on the [Em]front porch swinging and [C]fern pots hanging
[G]Home [D]with the [Em]church bells ringing and [C]voices singing
[G]Old [D]songs that's [Em]in my mind like a [C]stitch in time
Where the [C]tea is sweet and the love's complete [D]for me, I wanna go

[Am]I often think about [G]where I [D]have been
[Am]Where I am going and [C]lots a- [D]bout when I think about

[G]Home, [D]where the [Em]soul find comfort and the [C]heart find pleasure
[G]Home, [D]where the [Em]depths of love [C]is hard to measure
It's [G]home, [D]I [Em]hear you callin', I [C]hear you callin'
I'll [C]never be lost as long as I know there's a [D]place like that where I can go

Where [C]I can restore my weary soul on the [D]mountain slopes of the south "Blue Smoke"

Of [G]home, [D]ho[Em]me [C]sweet home [G] [D] [Em] [C]

[G]Home [D]ba[Em]ck to the hills of the Wh[C]ip-poor-wills
[G]Home [D]with the [Em]fire flies blinking and the [C]night stars twinklin'
[G]Home, [D]honeysuckle vine and [Em]musky fine [C]wine at
[G]Home, [D]where the [Em]ginseng grows in the [C]shady groves of
[G]Home, [D]with [Em]family and friends and [C]joy that never end
[G]Home, [D]there's [Em]no place like [C]it, no place like it, [G]home -----
