My Tennessee Mountain Home

C
Sitting on the front porch on a summer afternoon
G7
C
In a straight back chair on two legs leaned against the wall
F
C
Watch the kids all playing with June bugs on a string
G7
C
And chase the glowing fireflies as the evening shadows fall
F
In my Tennessee mountain home
C

C
Life is as peaceful as a baby’s sigh
F
In my Tennessee mountain home
C

C
Crickets sing in the fields nearby
F
C
Honeysuckle vines cling to the fence along the way
G7
C
Its fragrance makes the summer wind so sweet
F
C
And on a distant hilltop an eagle spreads its wings
G
C
And a song bird on the fence post sings a melody
F
In my Tennessee mountain home

Life is as peaceful as a baby’s sigh

In my Tennessee mountain home

Crickets sing in the fields nearby
F
C
Walking home from church on Sunday with the one you love
G7
C
Just laughing talking making future plans
F
C
And when the folks ain´t looking you might steal a kiss or two
G7
C
Sitting in the porch swing holding hands
F
In my Tennessee mountain home

Life is as peaceful as a baby’s sigh
