Verse 1
G          C                   G
Many years ago in days of childhood
  D7                                G
I used to play till evenin' shadows come
                       C            G
Then windin' down that old familiar pathway
    D7                            G
I'd hear my mother call at set of sun
Chorus 1
     C                          G
Come home, come home it's suppertime
    D7               G
The shadows lengthen fast
     C                          G
Come home, come home it's suppertime
      D7            G
We're going home at last

G           C                      G
Some of the fondest memories of my childhood
     D7                  G
Were woven around supper time
        C              G
When my mother used to call
         D7                        G
From the backsteps of the old homeplace
         D7                        G
"Come on home now son, it's supper time"
    G       C                 G
Ah, but I'd love to hear that again
                 D7                            G
But you know for me time has woven the realization of
                                C               G
The truth that's even more thrilling and that's when
         D7                          G
The call come up from the portals of glory
        D7                    G
To come home, for it's supper time
     G      C     G
When all of God's children
      D7                G
Shall gather around the table
       C        G
Of the Lord himself
            D7                       G
And the greatest supper time of them all
Chorus 2
     C                          G
Come home, come home it's suppertime
    D7               G
The shadows lengthen fast
     C                          G
Come home, come home it's suppertime
      D7            G
We're going home at last
