This Is My Home (Live)

[Verse 1]
Early in the mornin', first day of the year
Walked up the mountain, in the path of the deer
Up past the strip job, Sumac and scrubs
Up where the big trees grow

[Chorus]
And I look down the valley, look down the valley hole
And the smoke from the chimneys rose in the air below
This is my home, it's my home, it's my home

[Verse 2]
Once there were cabins made from mud and logs
Once there were farmers with their sheep and their dogs
Once there were soldiers marching down the road
And then the coal trains came

[Chorus]
And I look down the valley, look down the valley hole
The sun hit the mountain, turned the gray trees gold
This is my home, it's my home, it's my home

[Verse 3]
Under the bruises, under the scars
Under the shouting and the guns and the bars
This tender valley opens its eyes
It's like a new born child

[Chorus]
And I look down the valley, look down the valley hole
This old world is a mystery, there's one thing I know
This is my home, it's my home, it's my home
