C               F           G              C
Woke up this morning to the humming of the engines

C                  F             G            C
Hauling nature's finest from the Gulf of Mexico

C                 F      G                 C
Ridin' this ol' river is peaceful but it's lonesome

C           F               G                C
It makes wonder how the old folks are at home


(CHORUS)

C                           F           G                  C
Now the years have blown by me like the wind through the pines

C       F           C             G                 C
But the song of the south is ever sweet as homemade wine

C                       F              G              Am
Oh how I miss those mountains when the Laurels are in bloom

       F                  C              G              C
N' the southern stars are dancin' 'round North Carolina moon


C                 F               G                  C 
Just road through Memphis I could hear them guitar's playing

C            F               G                    C
They had the blues so bad it almost broke my heart

C             F            G                  C 
Don't sound nothing like a band of tree frogs singing

C             F                  G                   C
Every now and then they'd get in tune with grandpa's harp

(REPEAT CHORUS)

(INSTRUMENTAL)

C               G                     C
When I die boys make me this promise

C              F            G                C
You'll send my body back up North Carolina way

C                   F          G                C
I don't want no tombstone just lay me next to mama

C                F           G            C
And let the honeysuckle grow wild upon my grave

(REPEAT CHORUS)
