Jimmie Rodgers – Away Out On The Mountain (Guitar)

C
I packed my grip for a farewell trip

                                G7
Kissed Suzy Jane goodbye at the fountain

    F                               C
I'm going says I to the land of the sky

     G7         C

[Verse]
[tab]C
Where the wild sheep grows and the buffalo roams

                                        G7
And the squirrels are so many you can't count them

     F                             C
Then I'll make love to some turtle dove

    G7         C
Way out on the mountain

            F                   C             G7
Oh le oh le he ho i de le lo le ho i de oh le he o le he oh oh

                             C
le he o ou le he ou ou do le he

C
When the north winds blow and we're gonna have snow

                                G7
And the rain and the hail comes bounding

     F                             C
I'll wrap myself in a grizzly bear coat

     G7         C
Away out on the mountain

C
Where the snakes are vile and the zebras wild

                                  G7
And the beavers paddle on walking cane

     F                                 C
Then I'll mend my boots with a buffalo hide

     G7         C
Away out on the mountain

C
Where the Whippoorwills sing me to sleep at night

                                     G7
And the eagle roosts on the rocks of Spontan

     F                                  C
I'll feast on the meat and the honey so sweet

     G7         C
Away out on the mountain
