Biography:
Brian was born November 12, 1943, in Brooklyn/Queens, New York City, where his first musical experience ranged from church choir at nine, to clarinet and guitar, to his first local harmony group, the Delfis. In 1959, they cut a demo record and made the rounds of New York City record labels. Finally, with much persistence, after many closed doors, Brian was signed as a solo artist to a management contract, where he cut demos for band leader Sammy Kaye's publishing company.

I'M AFRAID TO GO HOME
written by Gary Geld and Peter Udell
performed by Brian Hyland
tab transcribed by Collins Crapo
Pattern 1:
Em / / / 2 / / / 3 / / / 4
I'm afraid to go home, I'm afraid to go home
Am Em
Worries on my mind, afraid of what I'll find
Will my family be gone? I'm afraid to go home
Am Em
Back to Tennessee, afraid of what I'll see
Pattern 2:
D7 G Em
As I walk down this dusty road, got a heart with a heavy load
Am D7 G
Ain't one thing that's the same, so much sorrow and pain
D7 G Em
Headin' home in a single file, every inch is a quarter mile
Am D7 G
Ain't heard nobody sing, ain't seen one livin' thing
(in pattern 1):
Someone's waitin' for me, honey sweet as candy
Wanna hold her tight; Lord, make her be all right
Maybe 'round on next bend, all the ashes of land
Valleys will be green instead of what I've seen
(in pattern 2):
I'm afraid for the scrubby pine, for the sweet honeysuckle vine
I'm afraid for my home, for the fields that I roamed
Kick along down a homeward road, and your heart's gotta take the load
I'm afraid to go home, I'm afraid to go home
Em
Sherman's been in my town, burned it all to the ground
Am Em
Now there's not a tree 'tween Memphis and the Sea
Am (decelerate...) Em
Now there's not a tree 'tween Memphis and the Sea
