[Verse 1]

F                                     Bb
After traveling through this world of sorrow
          C7               F
No one on earth to call my friend
                          Bb
I'm on my way back to old Kentucky
                C7                  F
Where I met and loved but could not win

[Verse 2]

F                            Bb
I've always loved you little darling
Bb            C7              F
My heart will always feel the same
F                             Bb
I could never do one thing to hurt you
Bb         C7                 F
I'd rather die than bring you shame

[Verse 3]

F                                    Bb
When the cold dark shroud is wrapped around me
Bb          C7            F
They lay my weary head to rest
F                              Bb
Will you stand around and gaze upon me
Bb          C7                F
For I'm the one that loved you best


[Verse 4]

F                                  Bb
When your golden hair is turned to silver
Bb         C7                 F
The Master calls your soul to heaven
F                                 Bb
Where we can be free from all our troubles
Bb            C7                 F   F
I'll meet you there at journey's end
