Key of C (1=C, 4=F, 5=G)
1 4
I see a candlelight down in the little green valley
5 1
where Morning Glory vines are twining round my door.
1
Oh, how I wish I were there again
4 1
down in the little green valley.
5 1
That's where my homesick heart will trouble me no more.
4 1
There's only one thing ever gives me consolation
5
and that's the thought that I'll be going back someday.
1
And every night down upon my knees
4 1
I pray the Lord to please take me
5 1
back to that little old green valley far away.
I hear a mockingbird down in the little green valley.
He's singing out a song of welcome just for me.
And someone waits by the garden gate
down in the little green valley.
When I get back again
how happy she will be.
And by a little babbling brook once more we'll wander
and in a shady nook we'll dream the hours away
and I will leave all my cares behind,
go where I know I'll find sunshine,
back to that little old green valley far away.
This is how I remember my parents singing this song many years ago. If
anyone has corrections, please email them to me. Thanks! Marsha
