Why Did You Wander

G                     C
Oh why oh why did you wander
   G                D7
Oh why did you ever roam
G                                 C
When you know that we always were happy
    G            D7           G
All alone in our old mountain home

[Verse 1]
                                  C
It was down in the old Cumberland Mountains
G                    D7
Down in the hills of Tennessee
   G                       C
As she waited alone in the moonlight
       G          D7             G
It was there that she waited for me

[Chorus]
G                     C
Oh why oh why did you wander
   G                D7
Oh why did you ever roam
G                                 C
When you know that we always were happy
    G            D7           G
All alone in our old mountain home

[Verse 2]
                               C
Oh why did you leave me little darling
G                    D7
Why did you leave me alone
G                                  C
For you knew I'd be lonely without you
    G            D7           G
All alone in our old mountain home

[Chorus]
G                     C
Oh why oh why did you wander
   G                D7
Oh why did you ever roam
G                                 C
When you know that we always were happy
    G            D7           G
All alone in our old mountain home

[Verse 3]
                               C
Now I hope you will always be happy
G                       D7
No matter where you may roam
G                               C
And I hope to be with you up in heaven
      G           D7           G
As we were in our old mountain home

[Chorus]
G                     C
Oh why oh why did you wander
   G                D7
Oh why did you ever roam
G                                 C
When you know that we always were happy
    G            D7           G
All alone in our old mountain home
