John Hartford - Going Backto Old Kentucky Chords

Going Back to Old Kentucky
John Hartford
Telluride Bluegrass Festival Album
A Bill Monroe song
Fast tempo
Banjo tuned E, Capo 3, Key of  A



   A         D        A
When I left old Kentucky
                E        A       
Linda kissed me and she cried
                D           A
I told her that I would not linger
           E       A
I'd be back by and by

Chorus:
I'm going back to old Kentucky
There to see my Linda Lou
I'm going back to old Kentucky
Where the skies are always blue


Linda Lou is she is a beauty
Those pretty brown eyes I love so well
I'm going back to old Kentucky
Never more to say farewell

Linda Lou you know I love you
I long for you each night and day
When the roses bloom in old Kentucky
I'll be coming back to stay

Chorus:
