(G major)
When (D major) (E minor) I (D major)
Verse 1
(G major)
was but a boy (C major) in days of (G major) childhood
(D major) I (E minor) used (D major) to play till (A minor) evening
shad (D major) ows come (G major)
Then winding down an (C major) all familiar path (G major) way,
I (E minor) heard (D major) my mother call,
(A minor) and (D major) said of son, (G major)
Come (A minor) (G major) home, (C major) come home, (D major)
it's supper time (G major)
The (D major) (E minor) shadows (D major) make (A minor) (D major) them fast (G major)
Come (A minor) (G major) home, (C major) come home, (D major)
it's supper time (G major)
We're (A minor) going home (D major) at (G major) last (D major) (E minor)
(D major) Some (G major) of the fondest memories
of my childhood
were (C major) woven around supper time.
(G major) When mom would come
to the back steps
of the old home place,
(E minor) she'd say, George, (D major)
come on in at supper time.
(A minor) Oh, (D major) oh my, but I'd (G major) love to
hear that once more.
But you know, for me,
time has woven (D major) the realization (G major) of a truth that is even more thrilling.
An (C major) d that's when the Lord comes
with the portals (G major) of glory
and says to come on in for supper time.
And we'll be gathered around the table
(E minor) for (D major) the Lord himself at the greatest,
the (A minor) greatest supper time (D major) of (G major) them all. (E minor)
(D major) In (G major) visions now I (C major) see her standing yon (G major) der
(D major) An (E minor) d (D major) her familiar voice
(A minor) I (D major) hear once (G major) more.
(C major) The (D major) (G major) banquet table's (C major) ready
up (G major) in heaven high.
Come (D major) home, (E minor) come it's (D major) supper time,
upon (A minor) the (D major) golden toe. (G major)
(A minor) Come (G major) home, (C major) come home, (D major)
it's supper time, (G major) (D major) (E minor) (D major)
(A minor) (D major) (G major)
Come (A minor) (G major) home, (C major) come home, (D major)
it's supper time (G major)
We're (A minor) going going (D major) home at last (G major)
We're (A minor) going home (D major)
You (G major) know,
(C major) I've got a lot more days behind me
than I have ahead of me,
and I know that.
But I also know this.
Should he return tonight,
I'm packed and ready to go.
Got my house all in order.
Got (D major) my house all in order.
(G major) Oh, I'm (A minor) going home. (C major) (B minor) (D major)
(A major) Yeah, (A minor) I'm going (C major) home. (B minor) (D major) (G major)
Someday (C major) (G major)
Isn't that beautiful? Beautiful!
Summertime!
