My Darlin’ Hometown John Prine
CAPO 3RD John Prine My Darling Hometown
Intro: John plays A but I think A7 works well to
D EM A7 D X2
[D]Far away over the [EM]sea
There's a [A7]river that's calling to [D]me
That [D]river she runs all [EM]around
The [A7]place that I call my home[D]town
There's a [D]valley on the side of the [EM]hill
And [A7]flowers on an old window[D]sill
A [D]familiar old picture it [EM]seems
And [A7]I'll go there tonight in my [D]dreams
Where it's [G]green in the summer
And [D]gold in the fall
Her [E]eyes are as blue
A7 HOLD FOR 2 BARS
As the sky I recall
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/john_prine/my_darlin_hometown_crd_ver_2.html )
[D]Far away over the [EM]sea
There's a [A7]place at the table for [D]me
Where [D]laughter and music [EM]abound
Just [A7]waiting there in my home[D]town
The [G]river she freezes
When there's [D]snow on the ground
And the [E]children can slide
A7 HOLD FOR 2 BARS
To the far side of town
(Repeat Intro)
[D]Far away far away [EM]me
[A7]Hung up on a sweet memo[D]ry
I'm [D]lost and I wish I were [EM]found
In the [A7]arms of my darlin' home[D]town
With the [G]evening sun sittin'
On the [D]top of the hill
And the [E]mockingbird answering
A7 HOLD FOR 2 BARS
The old chapel bell
[D]Far away over the [EM]sea
My [A7]heart is longing to [D]be
And I [D]wish I could lay myself [EM]down
In the [A7]arms of my darlin' homet[D]own
[D] [EM] [A7] [D]
