Johnny Cash - Suppertime: chords

A#           D#             A#
Many years ago in days of childhood
  F                                      A#
I used to play untill evening time would come
     A#              D#            A#
Then winding down an old familiar pathway
   F                              A#
I hear my mother call at setting sun

Chorus:
      D#                        A#
Come home come home it's suppertime
      F               A# A#7
The shadows lengthen fast
      D#                        A#
Come home come home it's suppertime
       F             A#
We're going home at last

Some of the fondest memories of
my childhood are woven around suppertime.
When mother used to call from the
back steps of the old homeplace,
"Come on home now son, it's suppertime."
My how I'd love to hear that once again.
But you know time has woven for me
a realization of a truth that's even more thrilling.
 That soon we'll be called together
around the great supper table up there
for the greatest suppertime of them
all with our Lord. I can almost hear
the call now coming through the portals
of heaven, "Come home son, it's suppertime.
Come on home."

Chorus

Through the distant clouds I see my mother
Her face is shining bright, with tender love
She's gone up in heaven, with her maker
And I can still hear her voice, from up above
(and she said)
