[Intro]

A5 A
you should feel the change back and forth, see first line of lyrics if you struggle)

[Verse 1]

        A5          A
She's a blue ridge cradle

       F#m
She's a mother to some

    E
And home to the laughter

   D5         D
Of road weary ones

         A5           A
So we'll sing all the old songs

       F#m
Sing to Grandmamma Road

          E
And we'll sing 'cause we miss her

          D5             D
And we're sad she had to go

[Chorus]

           A5           D5
If I could see off this mountain

            A5           D5
Through the clouds in my eyes

        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain

       E          D5
On the nights the stars fell

    A5           D5
And see off this mountain

            A5          D5
Through the tears in my eyes

        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain

        E          D5       A5
And the stars fell from the skies

[Intro] [Verse 2] (same as verse 1)

        A5          A
In the air I hear a fiddle

        F#m
Down a-long Hickory Way

        E
And the mandolin guitar

     D5         D
Like we used to play

    A5      A
And down on Dunn's rock

        F#m
Brothers boasting a dare

   E
We tell them they're crazy

     D5              D
And pretend we don't care

[Chorus]

           A5           D5
If I could see off this mountain

            A5           D5
Through the clouds in my eyes

        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain

       E          D5
On the nights the stars fell

    A5           D5
And see off this mountain

            A5          D5
Through the tears in my eyes

        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain

        E          D5       A5
And the stars fell from the skies

[Verse 3] (same as the first two)

        A5              A
And the mist taste like moonshine

        F#m
In the wind a carnival tune

   E
It soars with our laughter

But we'll all leave too soon

   A5              A
I raise a toast to family

   F#m
Put thanks in my glass

        E
In the arms of your loved ones

         D5             D
It's the only home that lasts

[Chorus]

           A5           D5
If I could see off this mountain

            A5           D5
Through the clouds in my eyes

        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain

       E          D5
On the nights the stars fell

    A5           D5
And see off this mountain

            A5          D5
Through the tears in my eyes

        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain

        E          D5       A5
And the stars fell from the skies
