  F                         Dm
* Smokey Mountain Memories, 'bout my home in Tennessee
  Bb                          C
* Yesterday keeps calling me, calling me ho-oo-oo?oo-ome
F                            Dm
Mountains rising in my soul, higher than the dreams I've known
Bb                                 C                      F
Misty eyes, they cling to me, like Smokey Mountain Mem-o- -ries

                              Dm
An old gray man with a dog a- -sleep at his feet
        Gm                       Dm
Plays a worn out fiddle, full of mel-o-dies
   F                             Dm
He smiles with his eyes, but the lines on his face
Gm                     C        F
Told me as much as the tunes he played

Talkin' 'bout my:

F                           Dm
Smokey Mountain Mem-o-ries, pretty girl's in Tennessee
Bb                          C
I was such a fool to leave, leave her all alo-oo-oo-oo-one
F                             Dm
Think about her in my dreams, wonder if she thinks of me
Bb                                   C                      F
I always hold her close to me, in my Smokey Mountain Mem-o- -ries

Instrumental: Follow pattern of first two lines of first verse*

                                    Dm
So mister, play your fiddle please, play some mountain mem-o-ries
Bb                            C
I've been down a lonely road, so far from ho-oo-oo?oo-ome
F                          Dm
Nothing left to hold onto, I made some plans but they fell thru
Bb                                     C                      F
Now there's nothing left for me but my Smokey Mountain Mem-o- -ries

Repeat first verse
