_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
Way up on the mountain, in the sweet southern air,
[E]
Is where I seem to lose the love I have [B] to bear. _ _
Silence of the snowfall and the peacefulness around,
[E] I feel so blessed with [Bm] all that I have found. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] Holler in the moonlight, sip the mountain's shine,
_ The sound of the music playing, [B] everything's so fine. _ _

_ _ _ _ _ Looking up a trail or a sign as I travel there,
[E] A liquor still, an old deer trail, or the home of a big old [B] bear.
_ I wouldn't want to mess with the old man,
But I'd rather mess with him because it is his home.
He's like me, he's [Bm] better left alone.
_ [Em] He's like me, he's better left [Bm]
alone.
[E] Holler in the moonlight, sip the [Bm] mountain's shine,

_ Racing in the river at the bottom of these [B] hills,
Helps me find my peace of [E] mind in all these natural thrills.
These [Bm] mountains were the first to show their face up to the sky,
[E] They need a rescue when I [B] die, _ _ [E]
they need a rescue [B] when I die.
_ [E] Holler in the moonlight, sip [Bm] the mountain's shine,
The [B] sound of the music playing, _ everything's so fine. _
_ _ _ [E] They need a rescue when [B] I die, _ [E] they need a rescue when [Bm] I die.
_ They [B] need a rescue when I die.
