[Intro 1]
[G][C][D][G][Em][C][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Just
[C]across the Blue [D]Ridge
where the [G]high meadows [Em]lay
And the [C]Gaelic spreads
[D]through the new mown [G]hay
There's a [C]rusty iron [D]bridge
across a [G]shady rav[Em]ine
Where the [A]hard road ends
and turns to [D]clay
[Bm]With a suit[C]case in his hand
there [G]along some boy [Em]stands
Gaz[A]ing at the river
sliding [D]by beneath his feet
But the [C]dark water [D]springs
through the [G]black rocks and [Em]flows
Out of [C]sight where [D]the twisted laurel grows
[G][C][D][G][B][Em][C][D]
[G]
Pass the [C]cold tepple [D]towns
in the [G]cold December [Em]rain
Into [C]Charleston runs the
[D]new river [G]train
Where the [C]hillsides are brown
[D]and the bro[G]ad valleys sta[Em]in
My [A]100 ,000 lives of work [D]and pain
In [C]a tar paper shack
Out of [G]town across [B]the [Em]track
[B]Stan[Em]ton [A]Hall used a man
Trying to [D]call something back
But his [C]old memories [D]stain
Like the [G]city in the [Em]haze
And his [C]days have run to
[D]gether like the [G]rain
And the [C]dark water [D]springs
through the [G]black [B]rocks and [Em]flows
Out of [C]sight where [D]the twisted laurel grows
[G]
