...     |C  |Am     |Am     |C  Dm  |F  |Am     |Am

      C                               Am
I was born on a mountain a long time ago
            C            Dm         F               Am
Before they cut down the timber and strip-mined the coal
         C                                 Am
When you rose in the mornin' before it was light
      C            Dm             F          Am
To go down in some dark hole come back up at night

      C                                         Am
I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home
        C            Dm            F         Am
and she knows me and keeps me from worry and woe
           C                                          Am
Well, they took everything that she gave, now they're gone
           C           Dm             F             C
But I will die on this mountain, this mountain's my home

      C                                   Am
I was young on this mountain but now I am old
      C          Dm            F             Am
And I knew every holler, every cool swimmin' hole
     C                                Am
'til one day i woke up, I woke up to find
        C            Dm        F            Am
That my childhood is over went down in that mine

          C                                         Am
but I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home
        C            Dm            F         Am
and she knows me and keeps me from worry and woe
           C                                          Am
Well, they took everything that she gave, now they're gone
           C           Dm             F             C
But I will die on this mountain, this mountain's my home

|C      |C  |Am     |Am     |C  Dm  |F  |Am     |Am
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
|C      |C  |Am     |Am     |C  Dm  |F  |Am     |Am
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

              C                                        Am
well there's a hole in this mountain it's dark and it's deep
    C        Dm            F          C
And god only knows all the secrets it keeps
          C                                Am
There's a chill in the air only miners can feel
             C             Dm          F       Am
Well there's ghosts in the tunnels the company sealed

          C                                         Am
but I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home
        C            Dm            F         Am
and she knows me and keeps me from worry and woe
           C                                          Am
Well, they took everything that she gave, now they're gone
           Am          Dm             F             C
But I will die on this mountain, this mountain's my home
