Old Bell Ray was a [Db] great, great, Ash County, North [Ab] Carolina, which is a neighborhood county,
[Bb] Allegheny, where my folks are from.
And she was a contemporary songwriter who wrote songs in an old-time way.
And she wrote about her life and her life in the mountains, those Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina.
And this song, it has a specific story, but there's sort of an underlying message in it.
As Mike was saying earlier, we lost Ray Aldrin and Mike Seeger this year.
Sort of the underlying story of this song is love the people you're with and don't wait too long to tell them.
So [E] make sure you tell them how much

[Ebm] [Eb] you
[Ebm] [Eb]
Old [Gb] day in Greenville, where the [G] old [Ab] white stars grow.
Oh, [Gb] there's a lady, my true love, she's gone [Ebm] from me.
For me,
[Gb]
[Eb] [Gb]
[Ebm]
[Eb] her hand's sweet as [Gb] flower,
Restless as the wildest wind.
Born with a love deep as the [Gb] ocean,
This was [Ebm] the girl that I needed.

There's no high, [Gb] far mountain,
[Eb] Saddle my [Gb] way, the [Ebm] girl that I [Gb] returned to bury,
So [Ebm] still upon this life's end I
[Gb]
[Db] [Gb] [Eb]
[Ebm] lay.
I'll [Db] go away, [Gb] I'll wander,
[B] Lay beside my [Gb] earth again,
[Ebm] And I'll haunt in, [Gb] as a man of riches,
Undone in [Ebm] sorrow, [Ebm]
undone in sorrow,
Oh, I'll breathe.
