[C#] [A#m] [C#] [A#m]
The [C#] sun shines bright [F#] in the old [C#] Kentucky home, but this summer [D#] the [G#] dockies are gay.
[C#] The corn tops ripe and [F#] the meadows in [C#] the bloom, [G#] while the birds make music all [C#] the day.
The young folks roll [F#] on the little cabin [C#] floor, all merry, [D#] all happy [G#] and bright.
But [C#] by hard times comes [F#] a knocking at [C#] the door, then [G#] my old Kentucky home, [C#] goodnight.
[G#] [C#]
[F#] [G#] [C#] Weep no [F#]
more, [C#] my lady, [F#] oh weep no more [C#] today.
We will sing one song [F#] for the old [C] Kentucky [C#] home, for the old Kentucky [G#] home, far away.
[C#] [D#m] [C#]
The head must bow and the back will have to bend, wherever [D#] the dockie [G#] may go.
[C#] Few more [F#] days and the trouble all will [C#] end, in the field where [G#] the sugar [C#] canes grow.
[D#m] [C#] Few more [F#] days for to drop the [C#] weary load, no matter [D#] it will never [G#] be light.
[C#] A few more [F#] days till we totter on the [C#] road, then my old Kentucky [G#]
home, [C#] goodnight.
