Well I ain't seen Mount Rushmore, 
         F              C
but I'd really love to go
F             C              G
Now that I am out here on my own
  Am               G             
I Bought a pack of Camels, but I 
C     G      Am
never really smoke
     F               G         
Then headed South to play in New

Orleans


[Verse 2]
    C                              
And I don't need your money, and I 
F                    C
sure don't want your wife
      F               C        
Cause I just bought myself a new 
     G
guitar
    Am                 G          
And I've been out here searching 
    C        G     Am
for a meaning to my life
  F                  G       
I haven't found what I've been 
            C
searching for


[Chorus]
        Am             F     
You can hear the Choir singing 
         C
"Holy, holy"
Am          F         G
Down by the old river band
        Am                F    
You can hear the preacher crying 
           C   Am
"It's so lovely"
Continues after the ad
      F                  G        
As we watch the children do their

[Verse 3]
  C                                
I saw you up in Bozeman with those 
F               C
sandals on your feet
    F                 C           
But I ain't seen your face since 
       G
we were kids
Am             G           C    
Bought a dozen roses and I laid 
     G       Am
them in your seat
    F                  G          
And left the room with question on
    C
 my lips

You can hear the Choir singing

C                            
I ain't but a poor man with no 
  F         C
family to love
F                C              G
That is what has kept me sane indeed
F                  G              
I spent years just searching for a
 C       G     Am
 meaning from above
     F               G            
When all the answers stood in
