Verse 1:

F             Bb     F         FM7F7
I have always been a wand-'rer
Bb   Bbm  Bbm6F
Over land and sea
F              Bb     F
Yet a moonbeam on the water
G7            G9   BbdimC7
Casts a spell o'er me

  Gm     Ebdim  Gm  EbC7
A vision fair I see,
  F      Fdim    Gm EbC7
A-gain I seem to be

Chorus:

           F        D7   G7
Back home a-gain in Indi-ana
       C13          C7  F
And it seems that I can see
    FM7  F7   Bb
The glea-ming candle light
Fdim  F              D7
Still shining bright
         G7   G13       C7EbdimC7
Thru the syca-mores for me

             F         D7      G7
The new mown hay sends all its fragrance
         C13           BbdimDm   Db7+5
From the fields I used to roam
       F               A7
When I dream about the moonlight
       Dm    Fdim
On the Wabashthen I
F           C    C7  F    C7
long for my Indi-ana home

Verse 2:

F               Bb       F      FM7F7
Fancy paints on mem'ry's canvas
Bb          BbmBbm6 F
Scenes that we hold dear
F              Bb      F
We recall them in days after
G7           G9 BbdimC7
clearly they ap-pear

    Gm    Ebdim   Gm  EbC7
And often times I see
  F           Fdim    Gm EbC7
A scene that'sdear to me

Chorus Repeat:

The ending:

F    Bbm6       F    F6
Moon swee - eet moon
