I love this song. I wish he would put this on a CD (if he hasn't done so 
already)
I think this is right, I can't really make out the guitar that well on the 
download.

Intro     G   C2    G   C2    G      D   C2   G

G
I just started singing, I didn't know the tune
C                   C/B             Am              D
I finally left the city I'm gonna make it back home by June
C                                       D   D/C     D/B     D/A
Upon my late arrival by the moonlight I could see
C                       Am                      D           G    C2   G
That the place I left so long ago still looks the same to me

Well the flowers still grow along side of Buttermilk Grove
And something in the air tells me the corn has just been sold
Been on my last subway, no more neon signs aglow
Oh I'm heading home to Buttermilk Grove

Now the sign above the general store tells me I'm not alone
And the number written on the wall right above the telephone
Brings my family running whether they be young or old
Oh, Jimmy's coming home to Buttermilk Grove

Em                      Bm
There stands my lady, I miss that woman so
Em                      Bm
She's coming here to kiss me, I can feel her through her clothes
G                                   D
She looks as good as ever if not better than my dreams
Em                                  D
Ah it must have been a fever that made me leave her that's what it seems


So tonight I'll pick my banjo, its been so long since I played
And my lady she just loves it, at least that's what she'll say
I play it till my fingers bleed, until the neck is bowed
I'm coming home to Buttermilk Grove

And the flowers still grow along side Buttermilk Grove
Something in the air tells me the corn has just been sold
Been on my last subway, no more neon signs aglow
Oh I'm heading home to Buttermilk Grove.
