^GIt?s been ten long ^B7years since ^CI left my ^Ghome In the hollow where I was ^Dborn Where the ^Gcool fall ^B7nights make the ^Cwood smoke ^Grise, And a fox hunter ^Dblows his ^Ghorn.

^GI fell in ^B7love with a ^Cgirl from the ^Gtown I thought that she would be ^Dtrue I ^Gran ^B7away to ^CCharlottes^Gville And worked in a ^Dsawmill or ^Gtwo

[Chorus]

^DWhat have they done to the ^Gold home place ^AWhy did they tear it ^Ddown And ^Gwhy did I ^B7leave the ^Cplow in the ^Gfield And look for a ^Djob in the ^Gtown

[Instrumental] (Mandolin Solo Chords) G B7 C G G G D D G B7 C G G D G G G G

Well the ^Ggirl ran ^B7off with ^Csomebody ^Gelse The taverns took all my ^Dpay And ^Ghere I ^B7stand where the ^Cold home ^Gstood Before they ^Dtook it ^Gaway

Now the geese fly ^B7south and the ^Ccold wind ^Gmoans As I stand here and hang my ^Dhead I've ^Glost my ^B7love I've ^Clost my ^Ghome And now I ^Dwish that I was ^Gdead

^DWhat have they done to the ^Gold home place ^AWhy did they tear it ^Ddown And ^Gwhy did I ^B7leave the ^Cplow in the ^Gfield And look for a ^Djob in the ^Gtown

[Instrumental] (Guitar Solo Chords) (Dobro Solo Chords) G B C G G G D D G B C G G D G G G G

^DWhat have they done to the ^Gold home place ^AWhy did they tear it ^Ddown And ^Gwhy did I ^B7leave the ^Cplow in the ^Gfield And look for a ^Djob in the ^Gtown.
