Swanee piano leadsheet with chords
I've been away from you a long time.
I never thought I'd miss you so.
Somehow I feel your love was real.
Near you I long to be.
The birds are singing, it is song time,
the banjos strummin' soft and low.
I know that you yearn for me too.
Swanee, I long to be.
you're calling me.
Swanee, how I love you, how I love you,
my dear old
Swanee; I'd give the world to be among the folks in
DIXIEven though my mammy's waiting for me,
praying for me down by the
Swanee. The folks up north will see me no more when I go to the Swanee shore.
Swanee, how I love you, how I love you,
my dear old
Swanee; I'd give the world to be among the folks in
DIXIEven though my mammy's waiting for me,
praying for me down by the
Swanee. The folks up north will see me no more when I go to the Swanee shore.
(I'll be happy,
I'll be happy.)
Swanee, Swanee, I am coming back to
Swanee, Mammy, Mammy,
I love the old folks at home.
Swanee, Swanee, I am coming back to
Swanee, Mammy, Mammy,
I love the old folks at home.
home.
