Misc Soundtrack – O Brother Where Art Thou - Big Candy Rock Mountain (Ukulele)

        C
One evening as the sun went down

         F                 C
And the jungle fires were burning,

          C
Down the track came a hobo hiking,

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

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

  C                  G
Besides the crystal fountains

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

     F               C
The Big Rock Candy Mountains

        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

                          G
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

     F          C
The lemonade springs

            F        C
Where the bluebird sings

        G               C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

        C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

         F                C
All the cops have wooden legs

         F                  C
And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth

                              G
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

        G               C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

        C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

      F                 C
You never change your socks

         F                  C
And the little streams of alcohol

                          G
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

        G               C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

        C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

     F                 C
The jails are made of tin

     F                  C
And you can walk right out again

                   G
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

        G                C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

      F       C         F     C
I'll see you all this coming fall

        G               C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
