You can pretty much figure out the finger picking for yourself, I personally
like plucking the strings at "But neither you nor I'd been" and single
downstrokes at "sure ain't gonna hold you down." Also, I think in some
versions he holds the F at "Hills of Kentucky" for an extra measure. Enjoy!
Well a [C]robin flew by my [F]window
I thought i[C]t just might be [G]you
Judging from t[C]he colour of its breast
And the [F]sound of its song
But I[C]'m just th[G]inking of [C]you
Cos you're in sunny California
The fertile land John Steinbeck wrote,
But when I came not a single fertile patch
Could be spared for you and me
You see I wa[F]nted to l[G]ove you [C]baby
[C]But neither you nor I'd been loved [G]before
I thought I could ch[C]ange the world if I just [F]held you high enough
The truth is [C]I couldn't h[G]old you up at a[C]ll
I couldn't [Am]hold yo[G]u u[F]p
I couldn't h[Am]old y[G]ou [C]up
And I su[G]re ain't gonna hold you [C]down
Solo
Well I'm[C] leaving
Walking back hom[F]e
I don't c[C]are if it takes y[G]ears or more
But as I [C]walk through the h[F]ills of Kentucky
The lea[C]ves begin to turn r[G]ed
And I th[Am]ink o[G]f y[F]ou
Yes, I th[Am]ink o[G]f y[C]ou
The pr[G]ettiest tree on the m[C]ountain.
