Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

 There's a house somewhere I know where the fires burn all night long

 There's a swing outside on the porch where I feel I could

 Rock away the dusk til the dawn

 And even though the wind may be howlin'

Stars are bright and they push me on and on

Chorus

 There's a half moon rising in southeastern skies

 There's a cold wind blowin' across the great divide

 And the stars they guide my way across the night

 There's a half moon rising, pushin me on to another mountain top

Push me on, no I'll never stop, push me on home

 There's a half moon rising in southeastern skies tonight

Verse 2

same chords as Verse 1):

Now the shoes on my feet, those soles broken down

And my coat is tattered and worn

And the hunger in my belly, and the fever in my head

Will vanish 'ere my first glimpse of home

And even though the rain may now be fallin'

The passion is deep and pushes me on

(Chorus)

there's a still at dawn like the sound of your love's breath

As she lies sleeping

Down below me now in the valley

Is the only piece on earth that I ever want to know

And her lips are as soft as I remember

She alone has brought me back on home

(Chorus)
