[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
Say, [C]you're
going to leave the old hometown.
Today you're going away.
You go[G]ing among the city [Bm]folks t[G]o dwell,
[C]that an old gray -haired mother told her boy one
[F]summer [C]day.
If your [G]mind's made up that way,
I wish you [C]well.
Your [F]old home will be [C]lonely.
We will mis[F]s you when you've g[C]one
The [F]birds will sing [C]sweetly
where you're not [G]known
But [C]if you get in trouble,
Jim, just write and let me know.
She [G]spoke these words,
and then she said, good [C]-bye.
When sick[F]ness [C]overtakes you,
and your [F]companion [C]shakes you,
And through [F]this world you'll
[C]wander all [G]alone.
home.
When [C]friends you have not any, in your [F]pocket,
not one [C]penny, there's a mother al[F]ways
[C]waiting for you at [G]home, sweet home.
