My Old Kentucky Home (C)
Stephen Foster
C C7 F C
The sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
D7 G7
'Tis summer, the folks there are gay
C C7 F C
The corn top's ripe and the meadow's in bloom
Am G G7 C
While the birds make music all the day
C7 F C
The young folks roll on the little cabin floor
D7 G7
All merry, all happy and bright
C C7 F C
By 'n by hard times come a-knocking at the door
Am D7 G7 C
Then my old Kentucky home, good night.
C F C
Weep no more my lady,
F C
oh weep no more today.
C7 F C
We will sing one song for the old Kentucky home,
Am D7 G7 C
for the old Kentucky home far away.
C C7 F C
They hunt no more for the 'possum and the coon,
D7 G7
On meadow, the hill and the shore,
C C7 F C
They sing no more by the glimmer of the moon,
Am G G7 C
On the bench by that old cabin door.
C7 F C
The day goes by like a shadow o'er the heart,
D7 G7
With sorrow where all was delight.
C C7 F C
The time has come when the families have to part,
Am D7 G7 C
Then my old Kentucky home, good night.
C F C
Weep no more my lady,
F C
oh weep no more today.
C7 F C
We will sing one song for the old Kentucky home,
Am D7 G7 C
for the old Kentucky home far away.
C F C
The head must bow and the back will have to bend,
D7 G7
Wherever the laborer may go
C7 F C
A few more days and the trouble will end,
G7 C
In the field where sugar-canes may grow.
F C
A few more days for to tote the weary load,
D7 G7
No matter, 'twill never be light.
C F C
A few more days till we totter on the road,
Am D7 G7 C
Then my old Kentucky home, good night.
C F C
Weep no more my lady,
F C
oh weep no more today.
C7 F C
We will sing one song for the old Kentucky home,
Am D7 G7 C
for the old Kentucky home far away.
