[Verse 1]
Am                     C                G              D
Down by the Bull Run River, where the water flows so free,

        Am             C             G                 D
In the heart of the holler, that's where you can find me.

          Am                        C           G                   D
The whispering trees, they call my name, as I wander through the pines,

         Am              C         G                    D
In the forest, I find healing, leaving all my worries behind.
[Chorus]
             Am               C            G          D
The mud and dirt cake up my boots as my burdens disappear,

          Am                  C              G             D
Finally home on this sacred ground where I never have to fear.

      Em                C          G                   D
This world may tear me down, but down here I find my faith,

           Em                 C       G                          D
Spread my ashes on this old bridge, Bull Run River I'll forever stay.
[Interlude] Am C G D [Verse 2]
        Am             C                G              D
The fireflies are a flickerin, as the evening shadows fall,

           Am              C             G                D
In the stillness of the twilight, I can hear the forest call.

      Am            C            G                 D
With every step I take, on this path so worn and true,

   Am              C                         G                       D
I feel the weight lift off my shoulders, as the night sky turns to blue.
[Chorus]
           Am               C            G          D
The mud and dirt cake up my boots as my burdens disappear,

          Am                  C              G             D
Finally home on this sacred ground where I never have to fear.

      Em                C          G                   D
This world may tear me down, but down here I find my faith,

           Em                 C       G                          D
Spread my ashes on this old bridge, Bull Run River I'll forever stay
[Interlude] Am C G D [Bridge]
      DM                  F           C              G
The stars above shine brightly, as I lay my head to rest,

        DM                 F                     C                G
In the arms so Wild and Wonderful, I've found my place Lord I am blessed.

    DM              F                C                   G
No more fears or worries, just the sound of the river's song,

         DM                    F               C               G
In this holler where my roots grow farther I’m right where I belong.
[Chorus]
           Am               C            G          D
The mud and dirt cake up my boots as my burdens disappear,

          Am                  C              G             D
Finally home on this sacred ground where I never have to fear.

      Em                C          G                   D
This world may tear me down, but down here I find my faith,

           Em                 C       G                          D
Spread my ashes on this old bridge, Bull Run River I'll forever stay.
