[Intro] G D D G x2 [Verse 1]
     G                     D        D                   G
When I was young and in my prime, I left my home in Caroline.

    G                   D         D                        G
Now all I do is sit and pine, for all those folks I left behind.
[Chorus]
          G                   D            D                 G
I got the blue ridge mountain blues, and I sat right here to say,

           G                        C                    D               G
my grip is packed to travel and I'm back to ramble to my blue ridge far away.
[Instrumental] G D D G x2 [Verse 2]
    G                         D   D                           G
I'm goin' to stay right by my pa, I'm goin' to do right by my ma,

     G                     D        D                G
I'll hang around the cabin door, no work or worry anymore.
[Chorus]
          G                   D               D              G
I got the blue ridge mountain blues, goin' to see my old oak tree,

      G                         C                      D               G
Gonna hunt the possum where the corn cob blossom in my blue ridge far away.
[Instrumental] G D D G x2 [Verse 3]
  G                   D        D                 G
I see a haze of snowy white, I see a window with light,

  G                      D           D                    G
I seem to hear them both sigh, where is my wand'rin boy tonight?
[Chorus]
          G                   D            D                 G
I got the blue ridge mountain blues, and I sat right here to say,

      G                       C                         D               G
every day I'm countin' 'til I climb that mountain in my blue ridge far away.
