Take Me Back to the Sweet Sunny South

guitar chords lyrics

Joan Baez

Chorus
Take me back to the place where I first saw the light
To my sweet sunny south, take me home

Where the mocking birds sing me to sleep every night
Oh why was I tempted to roam
The path to our cottage they say has grown green
And the place is quite lonely around
I know that the smiles and the forms that I've seen
Now lie in the dark mossy ground
Chorus
Take me back to the place where the orange trees grow
To my plot in the evergreen shade
Where the flowers from the river green margin did grow
And spread their sweet scene through the glade
Chorus

Where the flowers from the river green margin did grow
And spread their sweet scene through the glade
Chorus
