Take Me Home, Humboldt Grown

New Lyrics by Greg King and Darryl Cherney

Tune: Country Roads by John Denver

(G) Almost heaven, (Em) Humboldt County

(D) Redwood forest, (C) South Fork of Eel (G) River

Life is slow there, (Em) slower than the trees

(D) Ganga's in the mountains, (C) growing in the (G) breeze

Chorus:

Take me (G) home, Humboldt (D) grown

To a (Em) place CAMP won't (C) come

West of (G) Whitethorn, lower (D) Redway

Take me (C) home, Humboldt (G) grown

All my memories, I have lost them

Since 1980 when I first put my crop in

Sensemilla reaching for the sky

Southern Humboldt moonshine

Smoke gets in my eye

(repeat chorus)

Bridge:

(C) We plant in (D) spring and in the (G) morning hours we water

(C) Radio re-(G) minds me that the (D) feds are on the way

(Em) Helicopters (F) flying makes me (C) glad I harves-(G)ted my light dep

(D) Yesterday, yesterday....(D7)
