D A Bm E A
[Verse 1]
D A D A
Blue Ridge Mountains, late September
G E
Watch the clouds come and kiss the ground
D A D A
Like an angel, I'm delivered
G E A
I was lost but now I'm found
D A D A
Bless the waters, bless the forest
D G E
Bless the springtime, so long ago
D A D A
Bless the daughters of all the fathers
G E A
Bless the way we all grow old
[Chorus]
D A
When the clouds come, take the mountains
Dbm D
It's 'cause there's nowhere else to go
Bm E
When the rain pours like a fountain
G E D
Feels like I'm up against the ropes
Bm
And if my life's a one-way ticket
E D E A
Then I know which way I'll go, oh
[Instrumental]
D A Bm E A
[Verse 2]
D A D A
Well, I was walking with my father
D A G E
Just beneath the harvest moon
D A
And he said, "My son, you must live quickly
G E A
'Cause your time is coming soon"
[Chorus]
D A
When the clouds come, take the mountains
Dbm D
It's 'cause there's nowhere else to go
Bm E
When the rain pours like a fountain
G E D
Feels like I'm up against the ropes
Bm
And if my life's a one-way ticket
E D E A
Then I know which way I'll go, oh
