Alan Jackson – Blue Ridge Mountain Song (Guitar)

G                         C                        G                       
  Met her in the fall of 93  in the hills of Tennessee

                    C                                Em
She was barely seventeen  He was tall and strong and lean

                          C    Em                         C      D
They were deep in love by June  Hand in hand beneath that moon

          G                                    C
And she'd    sing a little blue ridge mountain song

                   G                                 C
And he'd just hum along.  They'd dance all night til dawn

                   Em                                   C
On a hillside all alone,  they were young and they were free

                    Em                         C
Like a mountain melody  In love as  they could be

D                       G      
Singin' that blue ridge song.

G                                C                                     G
  Married in her momma's wedding gown,  bought a house and settled down

                       C               D                 Em
He worked drivin' all around,  haulin' logs from town to town

                         C      Em
And he'd come home every night, 

                                    C      D
She'd be waiting in the front porch light

           G                                   C
And she'd    sing a little blue ridge mountain song

                   G                                 C
And he'd just hum along.  They'd dance all night til dawn

                        Em                                   C
On the front porch all alone,  they were young and they were free

                    Em                        C
Like a mountain melody  In love as they could be

D                      G      
Singin' that blue ridge song.

G                                 C                       G
  They couldn't tell him what was wrong. They just didn't know.

               C                          Em
It wasn't very long, til Jesus called her home

                        C
Then he got down on his knees,

Em                                C   D
 said God don't take my love from me,  Just let her

G                                  C
 sing a little blue ridge mountain song

                  G                              
Like she has all along.  

                        C                        Em       
I'll dance with her til dawn, On a hillside all alone

                      C                       Em
And we'll spend eternity, like a mountain melody

                  C                      
In love as we can be     

D                      G
singin' that blue ridge song 

G                         C                                   G                    
  Now he lives there all alone, in the house that they called home

                          C                             Em
In his heart there lies a void, from the absence of her voice

                       C
And he lays down every night,    

Em                                 C     D
 And dreams about that front porch light

            G                                    C
Where she'd    sing a little blue ridge mountain song.

                   G                                 C
And he'd just hum along,  they'd dance all night til dawn

                     Em                                   C
On the hillside all alone.  They were young and they were free

                    Em                          C
Like a mountain melody,   In love as they could be-e

D                       G     C                                                               
Singing that blue ridge song.   

D                       G     C
Singing that blue ridge song

D                       G     C
Singing that Blue ridge song
