_ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ [C] Yeah, put your hands together with me one time on this one, okay?
[Em] _ _ _ [Bm] _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] Took my family [C] with my Carolina home
[Em] Had dreams about the West [C] and started to roam
[Em] Reached long mountains on [C] a discovered [Em] trail
To see heaven that [C] ain't so far had been [G] held
And this fire on the [D] mountain lightning in the [Am] air
Holdin' these [C] knees and just waitin' [Bm] for me there
_ [C] _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[Em] _ We were diggin' and [C] shiftin' from five to [Em] five
Tellin' everything we [C] found just stay alive
[Em] Cold, gloomy, free like [C] the skies [Em] above
The city was a big thing, Lord, [C] it was the center of the [G] sky
And this fire on the mountain [D] lightning in [Am] the air
Holdin' these knees and [C] just waitin' for [Em] me there _ [C] Yeah!
_ _ _ [Em] _

_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Em] _
The girl [C] bussed him, he meant she
[Em]
And because there's a blow [C] line a girl [E] that bussed [Em]
him
Men were shot down [C] for the sake of fun
[Em]
But just to hear the [C] noise of them forty-four [G] gunshots
Fire on the [D] mountain, lightning in the [Am] air
Don't you think [C] he's been here waiting for [Bm] me dead
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [Em] _ Down by Widdow's [C] Sea, we'd find my grave
[Em] She used to love freezing [C] cold, she used to say
[Em] _ Got down in cold [C] blood by a gunman's cherry flame
[Em] For a use there [C] no good, well it [G] claims
And just fire on the mountain, [D] lightning in the _ [Am] air
Don't you think [C] he's been here waiting [G] for me dead
Lightning _ _ _ _ [D] _ in the [Am] air
Don't you think [C] he's been here waiting [Em] for me dead
_ _ _ [C] _ _
Waiting for [G] me _ _ _ [C]
[G] dead _ _ _ _ _ _ _
