Verse 1
You (G major) ought to (E minor) go north,
somebody told us
Cause the (Csus2) air up there
hold (G major) s gold (Gsus2) dust
And (G major) (E minor) fortune falls like snowflakes (Csus2)
in your (G major) hands
(Gsus2) Now (G major) (D major) I don't (E minor) recall who said it
But we'd lived (C major) so (Csus2) long (C major) on (G major) credit
So we just headed (Csus2) out to find (D major)
our promised (G major) land (Gsus2)
Just (D major) poor smoky (E minor) mountain farm folk
With (C major) nothing (Csus2) more than high (G major) hopes (Gsus2)
So (G major) we (E minor) hitched our station
(Csus2) wagon to a (G major) star
(Gsus2) But (D major) our dreams (E minor) all fell in on us
Cause there (C major) was (Csus2) no
land to (G major) prom (Gsus2) ise
It's (G major) a (Csus2) struggle, just keep in (D major) sight
Of who you (G major) are (Gsus2)
Oh (G major) (D major) and these northern (E minor)
nights are (D major) dreary
And my (C major) southern heart
(Csus2) (C major) is (G major) weary
(Gsus2) As (G major) I (E minor) wonder how the (Csus2) old
folks are back (G major) home (Gsus2)
But (D major) I keep lean (E minor) ing on sweet (D major) Jesus
To (C major) love an (Csus2) d guide (C major) an (G major) d lead us
Smoky (Csus2) mountain memories (D major) keep
(G major) me strong (Gsus2) (G major) (Csus2) (D major) (G major)
You know, I've (E minor) been thinkin'
just a whole lot lately
About what's (Csus2) been an (C major)
d (Csus2) what awaits (G major) (Gsus2) me
It (G major) takes (E minor) all I've got to (Csus2) give
what life de (G major) mands (Gsus2)
You'd go (D major) insane (E minor) if you give in to it
Life's a (C major) mill and I've (A minor) been (G major) through it
I'm just so (Csus2) thankful I'm cre
(D major) ative with my (G major) hands (Gsus2)
Oh (G major) (D major) and these northern (E minor)
nights are (D major) dreary
These old (C major) south (Csus2) ern eyes grow (G major) teary
As (D major) I (E minor) wonder how the (C major) old (Csus2) folks
(C major) are back (G major) home
But (Gsus2) (G major) me, (D major) I'm (E minor) leaning on my Je (D major) sus
I know (C major) He'll love (Csus2)
and guide (G major) and lead us
An (C major) d (Csus2) smoky mountain memories (D major)
keep (G major) me strong (Gsus2)
(G major) If (D major) I'll keep look (E minor) ing to the Father (D major)
He'll keep my (E minor) head (C major)
above (D major) the (G major) water
Smoky (Csus2) (C major) (Csus2) mountain memories (D major)
keep me (G major) strong (Csus2) (C major)
Smoky mountain memor
(D major) ies (C major) (D major) keep (D major) me
Outro 1
Be strong
(G major) (Csus2) (C major) (D major) (G major)
