[Intro]
        C
One evening as the sun went down

               G7         C
And the jungle fires were burning,

          C
Down the track came a hobo hiking,

                    G7      C
And he said, "Boys, I'm not turning

    F                        F
I'm headed for a land that's far away

  F    C/E Dm  C   G7
Beside the crystal fountains

   C
So come with me, we'll go and see

             G7    C
The Big Rock Candy Mountains
[Verse 1]
       C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains,

          F                    C
There's a land that's fair and bright,

          F                C
Where the handouts grow on bushes

        F     C/E Dm C  G7
And you sleep out every night.

          C
Where the boxcars all are empty

        F                C
And the sun shines every day

        F             C
And the birds and the bees

        F         C
And the cigarette trees and the

    F        C
The lemonade springs

          F        C
Where the bluebird sings

       C              G7/B C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
[Verse 2]
       C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

        F                C
All the cops have wooden legs

        F                 C
And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth

        F    C/E Dm   C      G7
And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs

    C
The farmers' trees are full of fruit

        F                 C
And the barns are full of hay

       F        C
Oh I'm bound to go

            F        C
Where there ain't no snow

          F          C
Where the rain don't fall

    F           C
The winds don't blow

       C              G7/B C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
[Verse 3]
       C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

    F                 C
You never change your socks

        F                 C
And the little streams of alcohol

     F    C/E  Dm   C   G7
Come trickling down the rocks

    C
The brakemen have to tip their hats

        F                 C
And the railway bulls are blind

          F       C
There's a lake of stew

       F       C
And of whiskey too

        F          C
You can paddle all around it

     F      C
In a big canoe

       C              G7/B C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
[Verse 4]
       C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains,

    F                 C
The jails are made of tin.

    F                  C
And you can walk right out again,

   F    C/E Dm C   G7
As soon as you are in.

      C
There ain't no short-handled shovels,

   F              C
No axes, saws nor picks,

    F        C
I'm bound to stay

          F         C
Where you sleep all day,

           F        C
Where they hung the jerk

     F        C
That invented work

       C              G7/B C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
[Outro]
     F       C        F     C
I'll see you all this coming fall

       C              G7/B C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
