G                                 C
There's a well beaten path in the old mountainside
        D7                    G
Where I wandered when I was a lad
                            C
And I wandered alone to the place I call home
         D7                   G
In those Blue Ridge hills far away


[Chorus]
                             C
Oh I love those hills of old Virginia
           D7                      G
From those Blue Ridge hills I did roam
                                    C
When I die won't you bury me on the mountain
    D7                               G
Far away near my Blue Ridge mountain home


[Verse]
G                                   C
Now my thoughts wander back to that ramshackle shack
         D7                   G
In those Blue Ridge hills far away
                              C
Where my mother and dad were laid there to rest
          D7                        G
They are sleeping in peace together there


[Chorus]
                             C
Oh I love those hills of old Virginia
           D7                     G
From those Blue Ridge hills I did roam
                                    C
When I die won't you bury me on the mountain
     D7                              G
Far away near my Blue Ridge mountain home


[Verse]
G                          C
I return to that old cabin home with a sigh
          D7                    G
I've been longing for days gone by
                                     C
When I die won't you bury me on that old mountain side
         D7                             G
Make my resting place upon the hills so high


[Chorus]
                             C
Oh I love those hills of old Virginia
           D7                     G
From those Blue Ridge hills I did roam
                                    C
When I die won't you bury me on the mountain
    D7                               G
Far away near my Blue Ridge mountain home
