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
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
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
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
