Music and words by Dolly Parton
arrangement by Clifford W. King
( s a t b ) a cappella optional piano or bluegrass ensemble ad lib.

Performed by the Rocky Mountain Chamber Choir Virtual Singers.

This is an incredibly beautiful a cappella choral arrangement of one of Dolly Parton's most sincere and memorable songs. The longing lyrics and simple melody are enhanced with rich and soothing harmonies. The piece begins with calming and reassuring chords that 'hum' and 'ooh' as the tone is set for evoking childhood memories. An optional alto solo, a few meter changes, some simple divisi and melody shifts between voices add to the uniqueness of the arrangement. Excellent for bluegrass, Americana, folk, or reminiscence-themed concerts.

Duration: 3:50
