Smokey Mountain Boy Chords & Lyrics - Elvis Presley

Intro

[G](W[D7]his[G]tl[D7]ing[G] a[C]nd[D7] mi[G]litary drumming.)

[CHORUS]
[G]I'm just a [D7]Smokey Mountain boy,
Coming [G]back to the [D7]hills I love.
With the [G]tops of pine all [C]bending in the wind
and the [G]deep blue [D7]sky a[G]bove.

[VERSE 1]
The closer and [C]closer I [G]get to home,
the more excited I [D7]am.
[C]Those were the mornings I'd roll out of bed,

start the day off with a hot corn bread.
[A7]Smothered in huckleberry [D7]jam.

[CHORUS]
[G]I'm just a [D7]Smokey Mountain boy,
Coming [G]back to the [D7]hills I love.
With the [G]tops of pine all [C]bending in the wind
and the [G]deep blue [D7]sky a[G]bove.

[VERSE 2]
I can almost [C]hear the hounds [G]running through the woods,
close on the trail of a [D7]hare.
[C]How I long to be with them, following the hounds a-hunting again.
[A7]Getting me a big old grizzly [D7]bear.

[CHORUS]
[G]I'm just a [D7]Smokey Mountain boy,
Coming [G]back to the [D7]hills I love.
With the [G]tops of pine all [C]bending in the wind
and the [G]deep blue [D7]sky a[G]bove.

[VERSE 3]
I traveled [C]around and [G]met lots of girls,
no matter how many I [D7]see.
[C]I left some pretty ones behind.

I know back home is where I'll find,
the [A7]girl whose love is meant for [D7]me.

[CHORUS]
[G]I'm just a [D7]Smokey Mountain boy,
Coming [G]back to the [D7]hills I love.
With the [G]tops of pine all [C]bending in the wind
and the [G]deep blue [D7]sky a[G]bove.
