Intro picking A
~
[A]They said head on to the mountains
Head on through the hills
Don’t stop until you get there
It’ll cure your worldly ills
Way up in the [D]mountains
Where the air is clean and [A]pure
So I [E]set out for the mountains [D]
Heading there for [A]sure [E]
~
Made it to the mountains
Didn’t take us long
Listening to that bluegrass music
While we drove along
And got to the mountains
Those Blueridge kind
Now I’m home in the mountains
Yeah mountain people are my kind
~
Neighbors are from Florida
Arizona too
Some from Califor-ni-a
Maybe some from Timbuktu
But we’re all now in the mountains
Where we’re all going to stay
Might buy me a rocking chair
Or put that off for another day
~
[D]Warm mountain day time
Cooler in the night
[A]Grass grows a bit greener [A7]too
[D]Hiking in the mountains
Resting when I’m done
[E]Set aside the rat race
No [E7]longer on the run
I’m up in the
[A]mountains
~
Looking out my window
Leaves are starting to fall
Finally head up hiking
Where the people all say y’all
Way on up in the mountains
You know those Blueridge kind
Yeah, now I’m home in the mountains
Mountain people are my kind
