Old Home Place

*Capo 3rd Fret

It's bee[G]n ten long years si[B7]nce I left m[C]y home [G]

In the hollow where I was born. [D]

Where the cool fal[G]l nights ma[B7]ke the wood smoke rise[C], [G]

And a fox hunter blows his [D]horn. [G]

I fell in love with a girl from the town

I thought that she would be true.

I ran away to Charlottesville

and worked in a sawmill or two.

(Chorus)

Wha[D]t have they done to the old home place[G],

w[A]hy did they tear it down? [D]

And why d[G]id I leave th[B7]e plow in th[C]e field, [G]

and look for a job in t[D]he town. [G]

Well, the girl ran off with somebody else

the taverns took all my pay.

And here I stand where the old home stood

before they took it away.

Now the geese fly south and the cold wind moans

as I stand here and hang my head.

I've lost my love, I've lost my home

and now I wish that I was dead.
