My Tennessee Hills

When all my dreams have been shattered

And the fabric of life comes undone

When it seems like nothing matters

And all of my good times are gone

There's a place that I've kept sheltered

From the sight of my sorrow and shame

Though it's years since I beheld her

She still calls my nameI'll go home, I'll go home

Where the wild shadows roam

And the dawn over mountaintops spills

Where the deer pause in flight

On the edge of the night

I'll go home to my Tennessee hills

I'll go home to my Tennessee hills

When all my vows have been broken

And my wild heart can't be tamed

When I've loved and lost once too often

And failure is my middle name

There's a place that holds forgiveness

And the promise of peace in despair

When I'm down to my last witness

I'll be going there

I'll go home, I'll go home

Where the wild shadows roam

And the dawn over mountaintops spills

Where the deer pause in flight

On the edge of the night

I'll go home to my Tennessee hills

I'll go home to my Tennessee hills
