G5 A5 D5 G5  2x

G5                            A5
Don't it make you want to go home now? 
D5                            G5
Don't it make you want to go home?
                       A5
All God's children get weary when they roam ,
D5                            G5
don't it make you want to go home?
D5                            G5
Don't it make you want to go home?

        G5                          A5
Oh, the whippoorwill roosts on the telephone pole,
         D5                G5
when the Georgia sun goes down
                                    A5
Well, it's been a long time but I'm glad to say, that I'm
      D5                    G5
goin' back down to my home town
                            A5
Goin' down to the Greyhound station,
      D5                G5
gonna buy me a one way fare
                          A5
Good lord willin' and the creeks don't rise,
     D5                    G5
by tomorrow I'll be right there

G5                            A5
Don't it make you want to go home now? 
D5                            G5
Don't it make you want to go home?
                       A5
All God's children get weary when they roam ,
D5                            G5
don't it make you want to go home?
D5                            G5
Don't it make you want to go home?

                               A5
But there's a six-lane highway down by the creek,
        D5                        G5
where I went skinny dippin' as a child
                              A5
And a drive-in show where the meadow used to grow,
        D5                         G5
and the strawberries used to grow wild
                                 A5
There's a drag strip down by the riverside,
         D5                     G5
where my grandma's cow used to graze
                                 A5
Now the grass don't grow and the river don't flow,
        D5                   G5
like it did in my childhood days

G5                            A5
Don't it make you want to go home now? 
D5                            G5
Don't it make you want to go home?
                       A5
All God's children get weary when they roam ,
D5                            G5
don't it make you want to go home?
D5                            G5
Don't it make you want to go home?

A5                            B5
Don't it make you want to go home now? 
E5                            A5
Don't it make you want to go home?
                       B5
All God's children get weary when they roam ,
E5                    A5
God how I want to go home  3x
