[Intro]
A   G   D   A  
(2x)
 
 
[Verse]
  A                                Em
Feel the southern breezes and the southern wind
  G            D                A
Blowin' down around the corner bend
  A                                  Em
D'Agostino's late last night I saw a boy, fifteen, the road
      G                          D                      A
With nothing in his pockets, his hands to the sky and nowhere else to go
 
 
[Chorus]
  A           Em
Can you see it or believe it?
              G       D             A
To send the corner man he's never been
    A                                    Em
So come with me I'll show you where the dogwoods bloom, it's true
  G                D                  A
Lost and found and lost again to the Honeysuckle Blue! ba-ba-baaa
 
 
A   G   D   A
 
 
[Solo]
A   Em   G  D   A   
(5x)
A   G   D   A
 
 
  A                                           Em
Runnin' through these caverns of gold runs a river of death indeed
   G                 D                     A
An old hotel servеs as a shelter for the children in thе street
  A                                 Em
Abandoned by the promised land set sail on their own
  G              D                A
How much longer will the well be dry for those who roam?
 
 
[Chorus]
  A           Em
I got a ticket in my pocket
             G        D            A
To send the corner man he's never been
  A                                Em
Have you ever seen the Blue Ridge Mountains, boy?
         G          D        A
Or the Chattahoochee or the Honeysuckle Blue? ba-ba-baaa
 
 
A   G   D   A
 
[Solo]
A   G   D   A   
(4x)
 
 
  A                              G
Call me to the promise land and run me down the walk
  D                        A
Run down and leave me lyin on the road alone
 
 
  A                                     G
If you got time I'll take you thru the fountain of love and more
  D                           A
Stand by my side and leave it all run out the door
 
 
  A                                               G
Well I got a dream and I got some love but it’s standin' far to long
  D                               A
And I got somethin' go ahead and it’s all found in love
 
 
  A                                       G
Well I’m bound by law and runnin for you holdin me alone
  D                                   A
Lost and found and lost again to the honeysuckle blue! baa-baa-baa
 
 
A   G   D   A   
(2x)
              Feel the southern breezes
And the southern wind
Blowin' down around the corner bend

D'Agostino's late last night I saw
A boy fifteen on the road
With nothing in his pockets
His hands to the sky
And nowhere else to go

Can you see it?
Or believe it?
To send the corner man
He's never been

So come with me
I'll show you where the
Dogwood's bloom it's true
Lost and found and lost again
To the honeysuckle blue
Bl-bl-blue

Runnin' through these caverns of gold
Runs a river of death indeed
An old hotel serves as a
Shelter for the children
In the street

Abandoned by the promised land
Set sail on their own
How much longer
Will the well
Be dry for those
Who roam

I got a ticket
In my pocket
To send the corner man
He's never been

Have you ever seen the
Blue Ridge Mountains, boy
Or the Chattahoochee
Or the honeysuckle blue
Bl-bl-blue

Come here to the promised land
Running down the world
Run down and leave me lying on the road alone
But if you got time I'll take you through
The times of love and more
Stand by my side and leave it all 
Run out the door

Well I got a dream, and I got some love
And it's standing far too long
When I start something, go ahead
And it's all bound in love

Well I'm bound by law, and I'm running for you
Holding me alone
I'm lost and found and lost again
To the honeysuckle blue
Bl-bl-blue
