Intro 1
(G major) (C major) (D major) (G major) (E minor) (C major) (D major) (G major)
Verse 1
Just (G major)
across (C major) the Blue Ridge (D major)
where the (G major) high meadows lay (E minor)
And the (C major) Gaelic spreads
through (D major) the new mown hay (G major)
There's a rusty (C major) iron bridge (D major)
across a (G major) shady ravine (E minor)
Where the hard (A major) road ends
and turns to clay (D major)
With (B minor) a suit (C major) case in his hand
there along (G major) some boy stands (E minor)
Gaz (A major) ing at the river
sliding by (D major) beneath his feet
But the dark (C major) water spring (D major) s
through the (G major) black rocks and flows (E minor)
Out of (C major) sight where the twisted (D major) laurel grows
(G major) (C major) (D major) (G major) (B major) (E minor) (C major) (D major)
(G major)
Pass the cold (C major) tepple towns (D major)
in the cold (G major) December rain (E minor)
Into Charleston (C major) runs the
new (D major) river train (G major)
Where the hillsides (C major) are brown
(D major) and the (G major) broad valleys stain (E minor)
My 100 (A major) ,000 lives of work and (D major) pain
In (C major) a tar paper shack
Out of town (G major) across the (B major) track (E minor)
Stan (B major) ton (E minor) (A major) Hall used a man
Trying to call (D major) something back
But his old (C major) memories stain (D major)
Like the (G major) city in the haze (E minor)
And his days (C major) have run to
gether (D major) like the rain (G major)
And the dark (C major) water spring (D major) s
through the (G major) black rocks (B major) and flows (E minor)
Out of (C major) sight where the twisted (D major) laurel grows
(G major)
