Verse 1

C                                    F
Where the Mississippi flowing by the sunny southern shores
G7                                          C
And the steamboat comes a puffing round the bend
                                   F
To the little old log cabin with a grapevine o’er the door
      G7                                 C
And a little white washed chimney at the end

Verse 2

                                        F               C
Oh I'm going back yes going back to the place I love so well
                                          G7
Where the old folks they want me home own again
       C                             F
To the little old log cabin with the grapevine o'er the door
        G7                                 C
And the little white washed chimney at the end

Verse 3

                                  F
Oh I went way up north where they told me I would find
G7                                    C
Money hanging around like apples on a tree
                                            F
It was like my sweetheart told me there was nothing of the kind
        G7                                C
And the weather was so cold I thought I'd freeze

Verse 2

                                        F               C
Oh I'm going back yes going back to the place I love so well
                                          G7
Where the old folks they want me home own again
       C                             F
To the little old log cabin with the grapevine o'er the door
        G7                                 C
And the little white washed chimney at the end
