The Green Mountain Boys

C                  F             
In a little valley by a bridge 
    G
they made a stand,
C                            Dm  
Just a bunch of boys, sir -- oh, 
                G
but they were grand,
 F                           C
Red Coats couldn't find 'em forward 
or behind 'em,
                     Dm            
For their eyes were keen, sir -- 
    F          G        C
and green their mountain land.


[Chorus]

        F         G         
Oh the mountains sing and the 
   C       Am
valleys ring,
     Dm              G          
And hooray for the Green Mountain 
   C
Boys,
        F         G         
Oh the mountains sing and the 
   C       Am
valleys ring,
     Dm              G          
And hooray for the Green Mountain 
   C
Boys.


[Verse 2]

     C                           F
The farmer dropped his plow and 
               G
took his rifle from the wall,
  C                         Dm    
Another dropped his hammer when he
            G
 heard the call,
     F                             
They left their farms and wheat, 
        C
sir -- to go plant freedom's seed, 
sir
                 Dm            F  
To feed a hungry nation with 
    G  C
freedom for all.

C                               F
Every man was ready, sir -- 
             G
hidden where no folk could see,
   C                   Dm     
Behind the rocks and stones, in

every bush and tree,
      F                            
They waited for a sign, sir -- and
