High Lonesome

Am Am/G# Just you and me and a little white pup, Am/G Am/F# Sittin' here waiting for the sun to come up, F? Bm11 E7 To keep the chill away. Am Am/G# Drinkin' our coffee at the first crack of dawn, Am/G Am/F# Watchin' a doe while she nuzzles her fawn, F? D7 It's my favorite time of the day. G C Bm C Hi-----gh Lonesome. G A D God don't ever let this mountain change. G C Bm C Hi-----gh Lonesome. G A D C#-D-E7 I hope you will always stay the same. Am Am/G# Sometimes in the evening when it's all kinda still, Am/G Am/F# Sweet mountain music floats over the hill, F? Bm11 E7 On a laurel-scented breeze. Am Am/G# Sometimes when nightbirds are scolding the mist, Am/G Am/F# I think I might know where heaven is, F? D7 It's just above the trees. G C Bm C Hi-----gh Lonesome. G A D God don't ever let this mountain change. G C Bm C Hi-----gh Lonesome. G A D C#-D-E7 I hope you will always stay the same. Am Am/G# Watchin' my summertimes turnin' to falls, Am/G Am/F# Seein' my son growing honest and tall, F? Bm11 E7 Keeps me satisfied. Am Am/G# If I live forever or I die today, Am/G Am/F# All I would ask is you just let me lay here, F? D7 On this mountainside. G C Bm C Hi-----gh Lonesome. G C Bm C Hi-----gh Lonesome. G C Bm C Hi-----gh Lonesome. G (hold to end)
