        G                   F
It's a lonesome road and a hard way to live

    C                           G
But it's the only life that I know

                       F           
I meet some people a-travelin' around

     C                               G
But home's always the best place to go

               F        C             G
And there's a lonseome feeling in my mind

   F              C             G
A feeling that I can't leave behind

     F               C           G              Em
Carolina's where I'm at and I'll always hang my hat

                                  F + Intro
Under those Blue Ridge Mountain skies

        G        F
Well I got me a woman back home

C                   G
She gave me a baby too

                      F
And she stands by my loving side

     C                       G
And does anything I ask her to

               F        C             G
And there's a lonesome feeling in my mind

   F               C               G
A feeling I can't seem to leave behind

     F               C           G              Em
Carolina's where I'm at and I'll always hang my hat

                                  F + Intro

           G (Pickin' and Banjo)
There's an old man sittin' in a rocking chair

Who's got the best beagle dog in the county

I've been told

But his shotgun a-done got too rusty that old

Beagle dog he done grown a little too old

As he stares up into heaven

I'm sure I know the reason why

He's a-thinkin' about that promised land

In them Blue Ridge Mountain skies

            F        C             G
And it's a lonesome feeling in my mind

   F               C               G
A feeling I can't seem to leave behind

     F               C           G              Em
Carolina's where I'm at and I'll always hang my hat

                                  F + Intro
Under those Blue Ridge Mountain skies
