Verse 1:

G             C      G         GM7G7
I have always been a wand-'rer
C    Cm   Cm6 G
Over land and sea
G              C      G
Yet a moonbeam on the water
A7            A9   CdimD7
Casts a spell o'er me

  Am     Fdim   Am  FD7
A vision fair I see,
  G      Gdim    Am FD7
A-gain I seem to be

Chorus:

           G        E7   A7
Back home a-gain in Indi-ana
       D13          D7  G
And it seems that I can see
    GM7  G7   C
The glea-ming candle light
Gdim  G              E7
Still shining bright
         A7   A13       D7FdimD7
Thru the syca-mores for me

             G         E7      A7
The new mown hay sends all its fragrance
         D13           CdimEm   D#7+5
From the fields I used to roam
       G               B7
When I dream about the moonlight
       Em    Gdim
On the Wabashthen I
G           D    D7  G    D7
long for my Indi-ana home

Verse 2:

G               C        G      GM7G7
Fancy paints on mem'ry's canvas
C           Cm Cm6  G
Scenes that we hold dear
G              C       G
We recall them in days after
A7           A9 Cdim D7
clearly they ap-pear

    Am    Fdim    Am  FD7
And often times I see
  G           Gdim    Am FD7
A scene that'sdear to me

Chorus Repeat:

to ending:

G    Cm6        G    G6
Moon swee - eet moon
