My Tennessee Mountain Home

G
Sittin on the front porch
     C
On a summer afternoon
     G
In a straightback chair on two legs
D                  G
Leaned against the wall

Watch the kids a playin
     C
With June bugs on a string
    G
And chase the glowin fire flies
     D              G
when evenin shadows fall

                C
In my Tennessee mountain home
G                        D      G
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
                C
In my Tennessee mountain home
G                    D           G
Crickets sing in the fields near by

G
Honeysuckle vine clings
       C
To the fence along the lane
                          D              G
Their fragrance makes the summer wind so sweet

And on a distant hilltop
   C
An eagle spreads its wings
      G
And a songbird on a fence post
D          G
Sings a melody


                C
In my Tennessee mountain home
G                        D      G
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
                C
In my Tennessee mountain home
G                    D           G
Crickets sing in the fields near by


G
Walkin home from church on Sunday
C
With the one ya love
     G
Just laughin talkin
D            G
Makin future plans

And when the folks ain't lookin
          C
You might steal a kiss or two
G             D              G
Sittin in the porch swing holdin hands


                C
In my Tennessee mountain home
G                        D      G
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
                C
In my Tennessee mountain home
G                    D           G
Crickets sing in the fields near by
