G B C G
It's been ten long years since I left my home
G D
In the hollow where I was born
G B C G
Where the cool Fall nights make the wood smoke rise
D G
And the fox hunter blows his horn
G B C G
I fell in love with a girl from the town
G D
I thought that she would be true
G B C G
I ran away to Charlottesville
G D G
And worked in a sawmill or two
D G
What have they done to the old home place
A D
Why did they tear it down
G B C G
And why did I leave the plow in the field
G D G
And look for a job in the town

G B C G
Well the girl ran off with somebody else
G D
The tariffs took all my pay
G B C G
And here I stand where the old home stood
G D G
Before they took it away
G B C G
Now the geese fly south and the cold wind moans
G D
As I stand here and hang my head
G B C G
I've lost my love I've lost my home
G D G
And now I wish that I was dead
D G
What have they done to the old home place
A D
Why did they tear it down
G B C G
And why did I leave the plow in the field
G D G
And look for a job in the town
guitar solo dobro solo

What have they done to the old home place

Why did they tear it down
G B C G
And why did I leave the plow in the field

And look for a job in the town
