Intro
Spoken 1
ch]A[/ch
Well, the cotton land played out every year and we went north to the big car factories up north
ch]A[/ch
Hey, and you remember those cars, the 1951 models?
ch]A[/ch
That you see driving around town that the fenders were all beat up on
ch]A[/ch
And the cars had been wrecked and in bad shape, I made those cars in Detroit
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And I dreamed about those cotton fields and home
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
I dreamed about my mother, dear old papa, sister and brother
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I dreamed about that girl who's been waiting for so long
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I wanna go home, I wanna go home
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Oh, how I want to go home
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Home folks think I'm big in Detroit City
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
From the letters that I write they think I'm fine
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
But by day I make the cars, by night I make the bars
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
If only they could read between the lines

ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
But you know I rode a freight train north to Detroit City
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And after all these years I find; that I was just wastin' my time
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
So I think I'll just take my foolish pride, put it on a Southbound freight and ride
ch]B7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And go home back to loved ones I left waitin' here behind
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I wanna go home, I wanna go home
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Oh, how I want to go home
