Key of C · Chords: I IV V

Verse 1

C                   F                        C
I see a candlelight down in the little green valley
              G7                               C
Where Morning Glory vines are twining round my door
G7                         C
Oh how I wish I were there again
F                        C
Down in the little green valley
                G7                                C
That's where my homesick heart will trouble me no more

Verse 2

                 F                   C
There's only one thing ever gives me consolation
                                               G7
And that's the thought that I'll be going back someday
                             C
And every night down upon my knees
F                              C
I pray the Lord to please take me
             G7                          C
Back to that little old green valley far away

Verse 3

                     F                        C
I hear a mockingbird down in the little green valley
             G7                             C
He's singing out a song of welcome just for me
G7                              C
And someone waits by the garden gate
F                        C
Down in the little green valley
           G7                            C
When I get back again how happy she will be

Verse 4

         F                                     C
And by a little babbling brook once more we'll wander
                                          G7
And in a shady nook we'll dream the hours away
                              C
And I will leave all my cares behind
F                         C
Go where I know I'll find sunshine
             G7                          C
Back to that little old green valley far away
