As recorded by Brad Paisley feat. Dan Tyminsky & Jerry Douglas (2023 release) [Intro] A [Verse 1]
A
Since the days of prohibition 'round here they've been making shine

A
I had an uncle go to prison running jugs across state lines

   D                                                                 A
He told the judge who let him out, you'll never catch me doing that again

A
He got a faster car and they never did
[Chorus]
                 E                           A
I'm a son of the mountains, I'm a son a of a gun

                   E                              A
I'm as free as the river that through this hollar runs

            D               A
Blame who I am on where I'm from

F#m          E                     A
'Cause I'm a son, I'm a son of the mountains
[Verse 2]
A
By the time they make it legal, we're a long way down that road

A
Hell, I don't care who you marry, what you brew or what you grow

        D                                                               A
Up here we believe in freedom, if there's a hill to die on, well that's mine

A
Yeah, it might be an uphill climb but
[Chorus]
                 E                           A
I'm a son of the mountains, I'm a son a of a gun

                        E                           A
Would you like a little moonshine, I think I've got some

                D                    A
A little uphill climb don't scare me none

F#m   E                     A
I'm a son, I'm a son of the mountains
[Bridge]
A                         A7
Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise

A7
It don't matter when you're up this high

A7
Dog on the porch, chicken in the pan

                      D
Come on baby, take my hand
[Guitar Solo] D A D A
A
Yeah, you're a daughter of the land and
[Chorus]
                 E                           A
I'm a son of the mountains, I'm a son a of a gun

                E                              A
I'm free as the river that through this hollar runs

              D                   A
The highs and lows don't scare me none

F#m          E                     A
'Cause I'm a son, I'm a son of the mountains
[Outro]
A
Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise

A
It don't matter when you're up this high

A
I'm a son of the mountains
