                        Old Home Place


*Capo 3rd Fret

         G                  B7          C             G
It's been ten long years since I left my home
                                          D
In the hollow where I was born.
                   G          B7                    C                 G
Where the cool fall nights make the wood smoke rise,
                            D            G
And a fox hunter blows his horn.


I fell in love with a girl from the town
I thought that she would be true.
I ran away to Charlottesville
and worked in a sawmill or two.


(Chorus)
    D                                     G
What have they done to the old home place,
  A                            D
why did they tear it down?
          G            B7          C               G
And why did I leave the plow in the field,
                        D             G
and look for a job in the town.


Well, the girl ran off with somebody else
the taverns took all my pay.
And here I stand where the old home stood
before they took it away.


Now the geese fly south and the cold wind moans
as I stand here and hang my head.
I've lost my love, I've lost my home
and now I wish that I was dead.
