Verse 1
D 
I'm going to do a tune that I wrote
using some imagery
that any of you who been to West
Virginia
will recognize immediately.

D 
The other morning at the sunrise
Bm 
When the mist was on the hills
and all around
D 
I saw a beautiful gray -haired
Bm

woman on  the road
A 
as I drove into town
D 
Bm 
F#m 
G 
I pulled over and I asked her if I could give her a
D 
A

lift upon her way she said no thank you.
Bm 
I'm almost home now.
D 
I'll be alright when the mis
A

t  clears away.

Let the sunlight break
through the darkness
D

and let the night turn to beautiful day.

Don't let the shadows turn
Bm 
into mountains.

You'll be all right when

D 
the mist clears away
The other evening, long past sundown
Bm 
When the neon lights were flashing
D 
in the night
I saw a young man sit on a doorstep
Bm

A bad man was a pitiful sight
D 
Bm 
His eyes were bloodshot
F#m 
His hands were trem  bling
G 
I hesitated as I thought
I heard him say

I know you lose some God,
I hope you win some

into mountains
You'll be alright

D 
when the mist clears away
Well, I've been lonely,
I've been angry
Bm 
Sometimes I   don't know
D 
just which way to turn
I've been lazy and I've
Bm 
been jealous
D 
Sometimes, you know,
A 
D 
I think I'll never learn
Bm 
F#m 
But deep inside me, if I listen
G 
There's a tiny voice that
D 
always seems to say
A 
Don't be mistaken,
D 
Bm 
you're not forsaken
You'll be alright
D 
A 
D 
when the mist  clears away
Bm 
Let the sunlight break
D 
through the darkness
G 
D 
And let the night turn to beautiful day
A 
D 
don't let the shadows turn
Bm 
into mountains
D 
you'll all right when the mis
A 
D 
Bm 
D 
t clears away
A 
D 
Thank you so much.
