Worries on my ^Ammind, afraid of what I'll ^Emfind Will my family be gone? I'm afraid to go home Back to Tennes^Amsee, afraid of what I'll ^Emsee

Pattern 2:

^D7 As I ^Gwalk down this dusty road, got a ^Emheart with a heavy load Ain't one ^Amthing that's the same, ^D7 so much ^Gsorrow and pain ^D7 Headin' ^Ghome in a single file, every ^Eminch is a quarter mile Ain't heard ^Amnobody sing, ^D7 ain't seen ^Gone livin' thing

(in pattern 1): Someone's waitin' for me, honey sweet as candy Wanna hold her tight; Lord, make her be all right Maybe 'round on next bend, all the ashes of land Valleys will be green instead of what I've seen (in pattern 2): I'm afraid for the scrubby pine, for the sweet honeysuckle vine I'm afraid for my home, for the fields that I roamed Kick along down a homeward road, and your heart's gotta take the load I'm afraid to go home, I'm afraid to go home

^EmSherman's been in my town, burned it all to the ground Now there's not a ^Amtree 'tween Memphis and the ^EmSea Am (decelerate...) Em Now there's not a tree 'tween Memphis and the Sea
