Fire On The Mountain

Em C Took my family away from my Carolina home Em C Had dreams about the west and I started to roam Em C Six long months on that dust covered trail, Em C They say heaven's at the end but so far it's been hell. G And there's Fire on the Mountain D Lightening in the air. Am C Gold in them hills and it's Em C Waiting for me there. Em C We was diggin' and siftin' from five to five Em C Sellin’ everything we had just to stay alive Em C Gold flowed free like the whiskey in the bar Em C Sinnin' was the best thing Lord, and Satan was the star. G And there's Fire on the Mountain D Lightening in the air. Am C Gold in them hills and it's Em C Waiting for me there. Em C Dance hall girls was the evenin' treat Em C Empty cartons and blood in the street Em C Men were shot down for the sake of fun Em C Or just to hear the noise of their black powder guns. G And there's Fire on the Mountain D Lightening in the air. Am C Gold in them hills and it's Em C Waiting for me there. Em C Now my widow she weeps by my grave Em C Tears flow free for her man, she couldn't save Em C Shot down in cold blood by a gun that carried fame Em C All for a useless and no good, worthless claim. G And there's Fire on the Mountain D Lightening in the air. Am C Gold in them hills and it's Em C Waiting for me there. G And there's Fire on the Mountain D Lightening in the air. Am C Gold in them hills and it's Em C Waiting for me there. N.C. Waiting for me there, waiting for me there {c: softly}
