Intro:
D Bm D A Bm D A D
D
In the hills of old North Carolina.
Bm                                   D
Since the time of the early settlers there
                                          Bm
A light has been seen on top of old Brown Mountain
  D       A         D
A mystery noone can explain
D
High on a mountain.
    Bm                   D
And down in the valley below
It shines like the crown of an angel
    Bm                          A
And fades as the winds come and go.
D
Way over yonder
C                          D
And night afer night until dawn
                                     Bm
That fathful Slave can back from his grave
D                      C
Searching, Searching, Searching
D               A              D
for his master Who’s Long Gone On.
D
In The Days Of The Old Covered Wagons
Bm                                      D
Where They Stopped On The Flats For The Nights
  Bm                        D
With The Noon Shining Dim, On The Old Canyon Rim
  D       A         D
They’d Watch For That Brown Mountain Light
D
High on a mountain.
    Bm                   D
And down in the valley below
It shines like the crown of an angel
    Bm                          A
And fades as the winds come and go.
D
Way over yonder
C                          D
And night afer night until dawn
                                     Bm
That fathful Slave can back from his grave
D                      C
Searching, Searching, Searching
D               A              D
for his master Who’s Long Gone On.
D
Many Years Ago A Southern Planter
Bm                                D
Came Hunting In This Wild World Alone
  Bm                        D
And Then So They Say, The Hunter Lost His Way
  D        A               D
And Never Returned To His Home
D
His Trusty Old Slave Brought A Lantern
Bm                               D
And Searched, But In Vain, Day And Night
  Bm                                           D
Now The Old Slave Is Gone, But His Spirit Lingers On
  D                 A               D
And The Old Lantern Still Casts It’s Light
D
High on a mountain.
    Bm                   D
And down in the valley below
It shines like the crown of an angel
    Bm                          A
And fades as the winds come and go.
D
Way over yonder
C                          D
And night afer night until dawn
                                     Bm
That fathful Slave can back from his grave
D                      C
Searching, Searching, Searching
D               A              D
for his master Who’s Long Gone On.
