Verse 1

G
Riding the night in the high cold winds
D                                G
On the trail of the old lonesome pine
G
Thinking of you, feeling so blue
D                          G
Wondering why I left you behind

Chorus

C                      G
Get down boys, go back home
D                    G
Back to the girl you love
C                      G
Treat her right, never wrong
D                     G
How mountain gals can love

Verse 2

G
Remember the night we strolled down the lane
D                             G
Our hearts were gay and happy then
G
You whispered to me when I held you close
D                               G
We hoped that night would never end
