Chords for Sonny Terry & Brownie Mcghee - Climbin' On Top Of The Hill

_ _ _ _ _
We'd [Gm] like to open up the [E] first part of our show,
Little Number, you can't stop me now,
because I'm climbing on top of the hill. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [E] No need of _ running,
holding up your hand,
I [A] can get me a woman,
but you _ _ can't a man.
But now she's gone,
and [C#] I don't [F#] worry,
_ [Em] _ climbing [E] on top of the hill. _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ Your [Em] love _ was alone,
but not my _ own.
You [A] started, baby,
breaking up _ my home.
But [E] now she's gone,
and I'm [Em] _ _ [F#] _ _ _
[Em] in on [E] top of the hill.
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ [C#] Babe, I got your [E] place, it's built. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ Babe, I [E] got your place, it's built. _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] Whoa, I ain't gonna let you stop me [A] from
climbing on top [E] of the hill. _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _
[E] Climbing on the hill,
and I'm looking down,
_ that [A] woman _ I'm loving,
she done left _ this town.
But [Em] now she's gone,
[E] and _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ [E] I'm on top of the hill. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ [B] _ [E] Bye-bye, babe,
bye-bye, baby,
you may call it gone,
it may [A] worry _ me now,
but it won't _ last long.
But [E] now she's gone,
and _
_ [C#] _ _ _ [E] I'm in on top of the hill. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ Sometimes I don't [A#] know why I write songs
[B] about whiskey, women, and money.
We haven't found anything in our [A] life
that's important enough to sing about.
That's one reason.
