G C
Back in the days of my childhood
G D7
In the evening when everything was still
G C
I used to sit and listen to the fox hounds
G D7 G
With my dad in the old Kentucky hills
C
I'm on my way back to the old home
G D7
That road winds on up the hill
G C
But there's no light in the window
G D7 G
That shined long ago where I lived
C
Soon my childhood days were over
G D7
I had to leave my old home
G C
For my mom and dad were called to heaven
G D7 G
I was left in this world all alone
Repeat #2
C
High in the hill of old Kentucky
G D7
Stands a foggy thought in my memory
G C
I'm on my way back to the old home
G D7 G
That light in the window I long to see
Repeat #2
