[Introduction]
G

[Verse 1]
G  C          G
Far away I've traveled,
   G  D7            G
To stand once more alone.
    G  C             G
And hear my memories echo,
              G  D7             G
Through these hills that I call home.

[Verse 2]
     G  C                G
As a child I roamed this valley.
              G    D7          G
I watched the seasons come and go.
        G  C        G
I spent many  hours dreaming,
         G   D7            G
On these hills that I call home.

[Chorus]
    C
The wind is rushing through the valley,
            G
And I don't feel so all alone,
       C
When I see the dandelions blowing,
           G D7              G
Across the hills that I call home.

[Verse 3]
         G   C         G
Like the flowers  I am fading,
  G D7             G
In-to   my setting sun.
   G    C                   G
Brother and sister passed before me:
G          D7                        G
  Mama and Daddy, they've long since gone.

[Chorus]
    C
The wind is rushing through the valley,
            G
And I don't feel so all alone,
       C
When I see the dandelions blowing,
           G D7              G
Across the hills that I call home.
              G  D7             G
These are the hills that I call home.
