Verse 1:
D               A           D          G          D
A long time ago   I left my home for a job in the fruit trees
                         A                D
But I missed those hills   with the windy pines
      G              D
Their song seemed to suit me
                   A     D               G       D
So I sent my wages to my home, said we'd soon be together
                      A             D
For the next good crop would pay my way
        G          D
And I’d come home forever

Chorus chords:
Bm  A        G       A           D
One-hun more dime to show for my day
Bm  A        G          A         D
One-hun more dollar and I'm on my way             
       Bm    A     G            A          D
When I reach those hills, boys, I'll never roam
Bm  A    G          A         D
One more dollar and I'm going home

Verse 2: use verse 1 chords
No work said the boss at the bunkhouse door
There's a freeze on the branches
So when the dice came out at the bar downtown
I rolled and I took my chances

Chorus:
One-hun more dime to show for my day
One-hun more dollar and I'm on my way             
When I reach those hills, boys I'll never roam
One more dollar and I'm going home

Verse 3: use verse 1 chords
A long time ago I left my home
Just a boy passing twenty
Could you spare a coin and a Christian prayer
For my luck has turned against me

Chorus:
One-hun more dime to show for my day
One-hun more dollar and I'm on my way             
When I reach those hills, boys I'll never roam
One more dollar and I'm going home
One more dollar, boys, I'm going home
