[Verse 1]
I'm go[C]ing back [F]home
[C]where I was [F]born
[C]First I planned to sta[Am]y but[F] I
[G]can't live this way
I'm going back [C]home
[F]where [G]I was born
[C]

[Verse 2]
Try [G]to [C]understand I think
this city's [F]grand
[C]But with all[E] it'[Am]s charm giv[F]e

I'm going back [C]home [F]where
[C]I w[G]as born

[Verse 3]
Oh [Am]yeah oh yeah oh yeah now oh yeah
I tell you all about it I think
you ought to know
Tell you all about it why I want to go

[Verse 4]
I miss the country [Am]preacher
and the house of prayer
I miss the bootlegger smelling in the air
Miss friendly faces and the country smiles
The crickets singing you can
hear it for miles

[Verse 5]
Miss the rooster crow[C]ing
at the break of dawn
Yes it all happens where I was born
Miss the fried [F]chicken colored greens
Miss the hot biscuits and the lima beans
[D]Miss the prayer [G]meeting
where the people pray
With the drum beating till the break of day

[Verse 6]
You can [G]have [Gsus4]it you ca[G]n
have [Gsus4]it
You can [G]have [Gsus4]it[G]

You can have [C]thy town
I won't be around
This here life's too [Am]fast
[F]but 'll [G]never never last
[C]I'm going back

[Verse 7]
home where I was born
I got to go home got to go home
Where the people are real people can feel
Got to go down got to go down

[Verse 8]
Leave here [C]today on my
way so long so long
Going back [F]home going back [C]home
[F]Got to go [C]home got to go home
Got to go home got to go home
[Dm]Where [G]I w[C]her[G]e I[Gsus4]
[G]was[C][Cdim][Fm]
[C]born
