Kentucky Mountain

E E How the sad wind moans on Kentucky Mountain E And the rain is falling in her face A E And by her side in the lonely graveyard B E I want to lie down and take my place E E She sleeping on Kentucky Mountain E And the rain is falling in her face A E And by her side when this life is over B E I’ll lay me down and take my place E How the sad wind moans on Kentucky Mountain E And the rain is falling in her face A E And by her side in the lonely graveyard B E I want to lie down and take my place E E We fell in love there in the mountains E Our love was beautiful and free A E She was so young when the maker called her B E I guess she was not meant for me E How the sad wind moans on Kentucky Mountain E And the rain is falling in her face A E And by her side in the lonely graveyard B E I want to lie down and take my place E E I’m like a lonesome dove at twilight E As she flies around from tree to tree A E My aching heart is full of sorrow B E Since never more my love I’ll see E How the sad wind moans on Kentucky Mountain E And the rain is falling in her face A E And by her side in the lonely graveyard B E I want to lie down and take my place
