5 -4 4 5 -5 4 7 -6 7
Way down u-pon the Swa-nee Riv-er,
6 5 4 -4
Far, far a-way,
5 -4 4 5 -4 4 7 -6 7
There's where my heart is turn-ing ev-er,
6 5 4 -4 -4 4
There's where the old folks stay.
5 -4 4 5 -4 4 7 -6 7
All up and down the whole cre-a-tion,
6 5 4 -4
Sad-ly I roam,
5 -4 4 5 -4 4 7 -6 7
Still long-ing for the old plan-ta-tion,
6 5 4 -4 -4 -4 4
And for the old folks at home.
-7 7 -8 6 6 -6 6 7
All the world is sad and drear-y,
7 -6 -5 -6 6
Ev-'ry where I roam;
5 -4 4 5 -4 4 7 -6 7
Oh, broth-er how my heart grows wear-y,
6 5 4 -4 -4 -4 4
Far from the old folks at home. |
