[F#] [B]
[F#]
[B]
I wonder if [E] it's raining in [B] the mountains I wonder how [E] the old town looks [B] today
[E] And if the church is there beside [B] the river Could [C#] I go back and find where [F#] Mama lay?
[B] Does life still [E] go to sleep just [B] after sunset?
Hard to bet it's still as big [E] on the mind
Do old men sit and talk [B] about the old days The way they [F#] did in 1949?
[B]
Oh, oh, [E] oh, how I'd like to [B] be Back in the [F#] hills of Tennessee
[B]
Oh, oh, [E] oh, it would be so fine [B] If I could [F#] just go back to [B]
1949
[E]
[B]
[F#]
I wonder [E] if by chance they might [B] remember A teenage [E] boy so wild [B] and fancy free
[E] Who always loved guitars [B] and country music [C#]
If I went back would they [F#] remember me?
[B] I wonder [E] what became [B] of Catherine Akers The girl that broke my heart at [E] seventeen
I barely can remember what she looked like When thirty [F#] years ago she [B] was my dream
Oh, oh, [E] oh, how I'd like to be [B]
Back in the hills [F#] of Tennessee
[B] Oh, oh, [E] oh, it would be so fine [B] If I could [F#] just go back to [B] 1949
[E] [B]
[F#] [B]
For many [C#] years I've searched the wide [B] world over What [C#] I don't recall and [B] didn't find
Now I'm searching pictures in my memory For [F#] Tennessee [B] 1949
Oh, oh, [E] oh, how I'd like to [B] be Back in the [F#] hills of Tennessee
[B] Oh, oh, [E] oh, it would be so [B] fine If [F#] I could just go back to [B] 1949
[F#] [B]
