The Folks Back Home chords by Geva Alon |
| C#m A |
| People back home know everything there is |
| F#m C#m |
| To know about me |
| C#m |
| I can be gone for years and |
| A |
| Still theyll know |
| F#m C#m |
| Where I’ve been |
| E |
| I read an article in the paper about |
| A |
| People like me |
| E |
| Thought I’d outrun them by now |
| B |
| But then back home |
| C#m B |
| They always see everything that I see |
| F#m A B |
| Before me |
| Bridge: |
| C#m B C#m B |
| C#m A |
| People back home tell every story |
| F#m C#m |
| There is to tell about me |
| C#m |
| And the stories they come up with |
| A F#m C#m |
| Are most of the time true |
| E A |
| Me I get confused by looking in the mirror |
| E |
| The only time I recognize myself |
| B |
| Is when I look at my dad |
| C#m B |
| And get nervous from having to grow old |
| F#m C#m |
| Without him |
| E C#m B |
| There’s a corner in my heart |
| E C#m B |
| For the folks back home |
| Bridge: |
| C#m A F#m C#m |
| C#m A F#m C#m B |
| C#m A |
| And my daddy says I should always remember |
| F#m C#m |
| My story |
| C#m |
| ’cause there will come a time |
| A F#m C#m |
| When all the folks back home will die |
| E Am |
| And that one day I will sit my children down |
| E |
| And tell them every story there is to tell |
| B |
| About the folks back home |
| C#m |
| How they knew everything |
| B |
| There was to know about me |
| F#m |
| And I’ll look at them and hope that |
| A B |
| One day I could say the same |
| E C#m B |
| There’s a corner in my heart |
| E C#m B |
| For the folks back home |
