Tom: G G D7 Kentucky you are the dearest land outside of heaven to me G Kentucky I miss your laurels and your redbud trees D7 When I die I want to rest upon your graceful mountains so high G For that is where God will look for me D7 Kentucky I miss the old folks singing in the silvery moonlight G Kentucky I miss the hound dogs chasin' coons D7 I know that my mother dad and sweetheart are waiting for me G Kentucky I will be coming soon Kentucky
