Why Did You Wander by Bill Monroe with Lester Flatt
Why Did You Wander
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Chorus]
G C
Oh why oh why did you wander
G D7
Oh why did you ever roam
G C
When you know that we always were happy
G D7 G
All alone in our old mountain home
[Verse 1]
C
It was down in the old Cumberland Mountains
G D7
Down in the hills of Tennessee
G C
As she waited alone in the moonlight
G D7 G
It was there that she waited for me
[Chorus]
G C
Oh why oh why did you wander
G D7
Oh why did you ever roam
G C
When you know that we always were happy
G D7 G
All alone in our old mountain home
[Verse 2]
C
Oh why did you leave me little darling
G D7
Why did you leave me alone
G C
For you knew I'd be lonely without you
G D7 G
All alone in our old mountain home
[Chorus]
G C
Oh why oh why did you wander
G D7
Oh why did you ever roam
G C
When you know that we always were happy
G D7 G
All alone in our old mountain home
[Verse 3]
C
Now I hope you will always be happy
G D7
No matter where you may roam
G C
And I hope to be with you up in heaven
G D7 G
As we were in our old mountain home
[Chorus]
G C
Oh why oh why did you wander
G D7
Oh why did you ever roam
G C
When you know that we always were happy
G D7 G
All alone in our old mountain home
