[1] West Virginia oh my [4] home
West [1] Virginia's where I [5] belong
In the [1] dead of the night in the still and the quiet
I [4] slip away like a bird in flight
Back [1] to those hills the [5] place that I call [1] home

It's been years now since I left there
And this city life's about got the best of me
I can't remember why I left so free
What I wanted to do what I wanted to see
But I can sure remember where I come from

Well I've paid the price for the leavin'
And this life I have's not one I thought I'd find
Well let me live love let me cry
When I go just let me die
Among the friends who'll remember when Im gone

[4] Home home [1] home
Oh I can see it so clear in my [5] mind
[4] Home home [1] home
I can almost smell the honeysuckle [5] vine
In the [1] dead of the night in the still and the quiet
I [4] slip away like a bird in flight
Back [1] to those hills the [5] place that I call [1] home
