Appalachian Moon Chords - Jon Bassin

Intro

D C Em D C Em D C Em D F/G I am but a boy, though I own a heart as old as coal. D C Em D Searching for something in the forests where I stroll. D C Em D I am out here, cause I got nowhere to go. D C Em D The open air, and the trees are known to soothe the poorest soul.

Verse 1

D C Em D I run and hide to sleep under an Appalachian Moon; D C Em D F/G pistol by my side I got nothing left to lose. D C Em D F/G Left my heart in the city, for you D C Em D F/G but you killed it, when you wouldn't say 'I Do'.

Interlude

Chorus

Verse 2

D C Em D I am the gentle warmth of the Sun's morning gleam; D C Em D I am the cool comfort of a cold mountain stream; D C Em D I am the Wolf's eye, in the dead of the night; D C Em D I am the tip of the arrow in mid-flight.
