Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][G][C][G][D][G][C][Em][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Back in the days of my childhood
[C]In the evening[G] when everything was sti[D]ll
I [G]used to sit and listen to the fox[C]hounds
With [G]my dad in [D]the old Kentucky [G]hills

[Verse 2]
I'm [G]on my way back [C]to the old home
The [G]road winds on up the [D]hill
But [G]there's no light [C]in
the window
[G]That shined long [D]ago where I [G]live

[Interlude 1]
[G][C]
[G][D][G][C][G][Gm][G]

[Verse 3]
Soon [G]my childhood days [C]were over
And I [G]had to leave my [D]home
And [G]mother and dad were called to [C]heaven
I [G]was left in this [D]world all [G]alone

[Verse 4]
I'm [G]on my way back [C]to
the old home
[G]The road winds on up the [D]hill
But [G]there's no light [C]in
the window
[G]That shined long [D]ago where I
[G]live

[Interlude 2]
[G][C][G][D][G][C][G]

[Verse 5]
[G]Back in the hills of old Ken[C]tucky
It's [G]the finest spot for my
whole [D]memory
I'm [G]on my way back [C]to
the old home
There's [G]a light in the win
[D]dow I long to [G]see

[Verse 6]
I'm [G]on my way back [C]to the old home
The [G]road winds on up the [D]hill
But [G]there's no light [C]in
the window
[G]That shined long [D]ago where I [G]live

[Verse 7]
But [G]there's no light [C]in
the window
[G]That shined long [D]ago [G]where I [C]live
