Goin Back To Harlan chords by Emmylou Harris

Goin' Back To Harlan - Emmylou Harris
 (capo 1)

 (intro) Am C F G (x2)

 (verse 1)
   Am         C
There were no cuckoos, no sycamores.
  F        G
We played about the forest floor
Dm        C
 underneath the silver maples,
G           Am
 the balsams and the sky.

 (verse 2)
  Am          C
We popped the heads off dandelions,
 F         G
assuming roles from nursery rhymes.
Dm       C
 Rested on the riverbank,
G          Am
 and grew up by and by.
G          Am Am
 And grew up by and by

 (bridge)
C
 Frail my heart apart,
  G
and play me a little Shady Grove.
C
 Ring the bells of rhymney,
     G
til they ring inside my head forever.
C             G
 Bounce the bow, rock the gallows
         Am
for the hangman's reel.
  G            C    G
And wake the devil from his dre-eeee-eam

 (chorus)
         C        G
I'm goin back to Harlan, oh oh oh oh
         C        G
I'm goin back to Harlan, oh oh oh oh
         Am   Am
I'm going back to Harlan

 (verse 3)
Am       C
And if you were Willie Moore
  F       G
and I was Barbara Allen,
    Dm          C
or Fair Ellen all sad at the cabin door
 G            Am
a-weeping and a-pinin' for love.
 G            Am  Am
A-weeping and a-pinin' for love.
