Standard Tuning: EADGBe

Intro: Dm E7 F C C


Verse:

C                              F   C
Been up and down this lonesome highway 
C                       C
coast to coast and back again 
C                        F C
I just had to do things my way 
Dm                    C
had to go against the wind 

Chorus:
Dm                              E7
Cause I've been dreaming of the girl I left behind 
         F                              C
Lord she had the truest heart I've ever known 
Dm                          E7
and I've been looking for a world I'll never find 
     F               C             C
Ever since I left my East Kentucky Home 


Remaining verses/choruses are the same as above..


I can smell the wood smoke risin' 
feel the wind out in the pines 
see the way I left her cryin' 
every time I close my eyes 


Cause I've been dreaming of the girl I left behind 
Lord she had the truest heart I've ever known 
And I've been looking for a world I'll never find 
Ever since I left my East Kentucky Home 


Think I'll get up with the sunrise, 
think I'll pack my things and go 
it's taken me this long to realize 
the only thing I need to know 


Cause I've been dreaming of the girl I left behind 
Lord she had the truest heart I've ever known 
And I've been looking for a world I'll never find 
Ever since I left my East Kentucky Home 
Ever since I left my East Kentucky Home
