Standard (EADGBE)
Sittin' on the front porch on a sunny afternoon
on a straight back chair on two legs leaned against the wall
Watch the kids all playin' with june bugs on a string
And catch the glowin' firefly as the evening shadows fall
In my Tennesee mountain home life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh.
In my Tennesee mountain home drinkin' singin' it feels div-ine.
Honey-suckel vines cling to the fence along the way
It's fragrance makes the summer wind so sweet
And on a distant hill top an eagle spreads it's wings
and a song bird on the fence post sings a melo-dy.
In my Tennesee mountain home life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh.
In my Tennesee mountain home drinkin' singin' it feels div-ine.
Walkin' home from church on sunday with the one you love
Just laughin', talkin', makin' future plans
And when the folks 'aint lookin' you might steal a kiss or two
Sittin' on the porch swing holdin' hands.
In my Tennesee mountain home life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh.
In my Tennesee mountain home drinkin' singin' it feels div-ine.
In my Tennesee mountain home life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh.
In my Tennesee mountain home drinkin' singin' it feels div-ine.
I'll never get tired of playing this song for you Jan... love you honey. -Jean
