Don't it make you want to go Home  (J. Smith)

Intro: GEm/AmD7/G?D7Don't it make you want to go home,

Chorus

  G                                            A7
Don't it make you want to go home, now,
  D7                                          G
Don't it make you want to go home?
                                    A7
All Gods children get weary when they roam,
  D7                                           G
Don't it make you want to go home?
  D7                                          G    C   G
Don't it make you want to go home?


                     G                                     C
Oh, the whippoorwill roosts on the telephone pole
                 D7                               G
And the Georgia sun goes down
                                                       C
Well, It's been a long time but I'm glad to say
                        D7                                 G
That I'm goin' back down to my hometown
            G                                     C
Goin' down to the Greyhound station
            D7                          G
Gonna buy me a one-way fare
                                              C
Good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise
            D7                     G    D7
Watch for I'll be right there.

(Chorus)

                     G                          C
But there's a six lane highway down by the creek
               D7                                   G
Where I went skinny dippin' as a child
                                                      C
And a drive-in show where the meadow used to grow
                  D7                                 G
And the strawberries used to grow wild
                 G                                 C
There's a drag strip down by the river-side
                      D7                             G
Where my grandma's cow used to graze
                                                       C
Now the grass don't grow and the river don't flow
            D7                            G
Like it did in my childhood days (change key)

(Chorus in A key)

  E7                                          B7
Don't it make you want to go home, (repeat and fade)
