Old Folks At Home (Swanee River) chords
Stephen Foster (as sung by Paul Robeson)
C F
Way down upon the Swanee River,
C G
Far, far away
C F
That's where my heart is turning ever
C G C
That's where the old folks stay
F
All up and down the whole creation,
C G
Sadly I roam
C F
Still longing for the old plantation
C G C
And for the old folks at home
G C F C G
All the world is sad and dreary, everywhere I roam
C F
Oh, Lordy, how my heart grows weary,
C G C
far from the old folks at home
C F
All 'round the little farm I wandered,
C G
When I was young
C F
Then many happy days I squandered,
C G C
Many the songs I sung
C F
When I was playing with my brother,
C G
Happy was I
C F
Oh, take me to my kind old mother,
C G C
There let me live and die
G C F C G
All the world is sad and dreary, everywhere I roam
C F
Oh, Lordy, how my heart grows weary,
C G C
far from the old folks at home
C F
One little hut among the bushes,
C G
One that I love
C F
Still sadly to my mem'ry rushes,
C G C
No matter where I rove
C F
When shall I see the bees a humming,
C G
All 'round the comb
C F
When shall I hear the banjo strumming,
C G C
Down by my good old home
G C F C G
All the world is sad and dreary, everywhere I roam
C F
Oh, Lordy, how my heart grows weary,
C G C
far from the old folks at home
