Verse 1
An (A minor) Appalachian Lullaby
(G major) Pete Seeger (D major) first founded in the Appalachians, I (A minor) believe (G major) I've
been in arguments with people before
about the simplicity
of the mountain people
because I spent quite a bit of (A minor) time in the Oz (D major) arks,
in the Appalachians, Smokies, all in there (A minor)
The mountain people are not simple
people
They might lead simple lives, yes (G major) I was look
(A minor) ing for a guy on Beach Mountain
called Beardy Ed Presnell
he's a dulcimer
maker on Beach Mountain.
He's got a 60 (G major) Cadillac four
-door (A minor) on a shed.
No, no kidding, this guy lives so far
back in the mountains
I ripped my muffler off getting up there.
(G major) And (A minor) this is his name,
Beardy Ed Presnick.
He made him a little bit of money
selling a certain form of liquid and fruit jars
and he went down and bought himself
a Cadillac.
Drove it something like 180 miles
to his front door
built a little shed for it
and it's been sitting there since 1960
he sits in it every once in
while you know and listen to the radio
as I said they're not simple people
and this song I think sort of exemplifies
this because it's an Appalachian lullaby
called one grain of sand
One grain of sand
(A minor) One (G major) (A minor) grain of (G major) sand in all the world
(A minor) One grain of sand, (A minor)
(G major) one (A minor) little boy, one little girl (A minor)
One grain of sand, (A minor) (G major)
one lonely (G major) star up in the blue
One (A minor) grain of sand, (F sharp major) (G major) one (A minor) little me,
one little you. (A minor) (A minor)
One (A minor) grain of sand, (G major)
one blade of grass (G major) on a windy plain.
(A minor) One grain of sand,
(G major) we (A minor) come and go again, and again,
and again, and again, and again, and again. (A minor)
I love you (A minor) so.
(G major) I (A minor) love you so,
I (F sharp major) love you (G major) so, (A minor) I love you so (G major)
(A minor) More than you will ever, ever, ever, ever, ever,
ever know. (A minor)
One grain of sand,
One (G major) (A minor) drop of water in
an endless (G major) sea.
(A minor) One grain of sand,
(G major) (A minor) one little (G major) you, one little (A minor) me.
One little (G major) you, one little me. (A minor)
One grain of sand,
(G major) one (A minor) grain of sand (F sharp major) in all the (G major) world.
One (A minor) grain of sand (A minor) (G major)
One little boy, one (A minor) little girl
One little boy, one little girl
(A minor)
