The Mountain

D                                       Bm 
I was born on this mountain a long time ago  
D                            Em         G               Bm 
Before they knocked down the timber and strip-mined the coal  
D                                           Bm 
When you rose in the mornin' before it was light  
      D            Em            G               Bm    A 
To go down in that dark hole and come back up at night  
      D                                         Bm  
I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home  
D                Em            G         A 
She holds me and keeps me from worry and woe  
           D                                          Bm 
Well, they took everything that she gave, now they're gone  
         D           Em             G             D   
But I'll die on this mountain, this mountain's my home  
D                                         Bm 
I was young on this mountain but now I am old  
      D          Em            G             Bm  
And I knew every holler, every cool swimmin' hole  
D                                        Bm 
Till one night I lay down and woke up to find  
        D             Em               G          Bm  A 
That my childhood was over and I went down in the mine  
      D                                         Bm  
I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home  
D                Em            G         A 
She holds me and keeps me from worry and woe  
           D                                          Bm 
Well, they took everything that she gave, now they're gone  
         D           Em             G             D   
But I'll die on this mountain, this mountain's my home  
 
SOLO 
 
D                                                      Bm 
There's a hole in this mountain and it's dark and it's deep  
    D        Em            G          Bm    
And God only knows all the secrets it keeps  
          D                                Bm 
There's a chill in the air only miners can feel  
         D             Em               G       Bm      A 
There're ghosts in the tunnels that the company sealed 
      D                                         Bm  
I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home  
D                Em            G         A 
She holds me and keeps me from worry and woe  
           D                                          Bm 
Well, they took everything that she gave, now they're gone  
         D           Em             G             D   
But I'll die on this mountain, this mountain's my home
