To the gentle place that held me close, as I became a man 
        F                 G             C                  D

Where the memories all have gathered up and slowly turned to gold 
         F                G          C            D 
And I've carried them along with me where ever I may go,And I feel 
G           C 
Fine, so fine 
F                                C

      C                           ???                       D

Home, back home 
F                                        C 
Where the Bible is the Bible and the angels get their wings 
          F              G            C                     D 
And the circle is unbroken, when I hear them church bells ring and I feel 
G              C 
Fine, you know I feel so fine 
F                                C 
Yeah knowing that this road I'm wandering on 
F                    D                   C 
From time to time unwinds, across the rivers through the pines 
               G 
And leads me home.
