Verse 1
C
F
I was born on Stagger Mountain
C
F
in the sunshine and the snow
C
Bb
And leavin' was the first
F
G
mistake I made;
C
G
But I hungered for the shadows
Bb
C
tune the devil played.
C
F
of sunshine on the snow
Bb
F
G
hair was black as sin.
C
G
And her body set the smokes of hell
F
C
a-boilin' in in my skull
G
F
C
Where the air is pure and cold;
G
F
C
But there's darkness in the shadows
Bb
C
In the canyons of my soul.
C
F
like a demon on the wall
Bb
F
G
breathin' on her skin;
C
G
Then the room was spinning closer
F
C
as her clothes began to fall
And the eagle started
Bb
C
screamin' in my brain;
C
F
and I heard the devil scream
Bb
F
G
beating in my hand.
C
G
Then the darkness blew away and
F
C
I was standin' by a tree
With a hanging rope a-danglin'
Bb
C
from from a limb.
G
F
C
Where the air is pure and cold;
G
F
C
But there's darkness in the shadows
