Key: D major

Verse 1
D D 
 
G G 
 
Well I left home at a crack of
A A 
 
D D 
 
dawn just about a year ago
G G 
 
I thumbed my way cross the USA and I
A A 
 
D D 
 
learned a lot I didn't know
G G 
 
The Promised Land that I thought I'd
A A 
 
D D 
 
find was always just ahead of me
G G 
 
Until one day when I realized
A A 
 
I left it back in Tennessee

Verse 2
D D 
 
And that's why I'm going back to my
A A 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
Tennessee girl and a Tennessee way of life
A A 
 
And I'm gonna ask my Tennessee
G G 
 
D D 
 
girl to be my Tennessee wife
G G 
 
Tonight I slept in a hobo camp
A A 
 
D D 
 
workin' out like dog by day
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
I never got enough to get ahead
A A 
 
D D 
 
just enough to make my way

Verse 3
D D 
 
G G 
 
Cold and tired when the evening
A A 
 
D D 
 
come all I had to ease my mind
G G 
 
Was thinkin' bout the place I started
A A 
 
D D 
 
from and the girl that I left behind
A A 
 
D D 
 
And that's why I'm going
A A 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
A A 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
B B 
 
back...
E E 
 
A A 
 
There ain't no place that I been at all
B B 
 
E E 
 
that I  would gonna settle in

Verse 4
E E 
 
A A 
 
And every town that I travel through
B B 
 
E E 
 
made me want to go home again
A A 
 
The green green grass and the rollin'
B B 
 
E E 
 
hills seem to keep a callin' me
A A 
 
Back to the place where I  was born
B B 
 
E E 
 
and the girl that I long to see
And that's why I'm going
B B 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
B B 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
back...
