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 IÂ’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
