    to the blue ridge mountains, over near Tennessee.

    My good grandfather

                 Fmaj13 (4)
    Built a wooden nest.

     

                Bb (4)
    And the river got frozen,

                 Cadd9 (4)
    And the home got snowed in,

              Bb (4)

    And the yellow moon glowed bright,

                 Fmaj13 (4)
    To the morning light.

    Terrible am I child?

    Bb                      Cadd9
    Even if you don't mind,
