John Prine - My Darling Home Town guitar chord

My Darlin' Hometown

John Prine/Rodger Cook

(ci:Intro:)

(F) (Gm) (C) (F)

(F) (Gm) (C) (F)

F Gm

Far away over the sea

C F

There's a river that's calling to me

Gm

That river she runs all around

C F

The place that I call my hometown

F Gm

There's a valley on the side of the hill

C F

And flowers on an old windowsill

Gm

A familiar old picture it seems

C F

And I'll go there tonight in my dreams

Bb

Where it's green in the summer

F

And gold in the fall

G

Her eyes are as blue

C

As the sky I recall

Far away over the sea

There's a place at the table for me

Where laughter and music abound

Just waiting there in my hometown

The river she freezes

When there's snow on the ground

And the children can slide

To the far side of town

Instrumental

(F) (Gm) (C) (F)

(F) (Gm) (C) (F)

Far away far away me

Hung up on a sweet memory

I'm lost and I wish I were found

In the arms of my darlin' hometown

With the evening sun sittin'

On the top of the hill

And the mockingbird answering

The old chapel bell

Far away over the sea

My heart is longing to be

And I wish I could lay myself down

In the arms of my darlin' hometown

Ending

(F) (Gm) (C) (F)
