Fire On The Mountain
The Marshall Tucker Band
Written by George McCorkle
Em C
Took my family away from my Carolina home
Em C
Had dreams about the West and started to roam
Em C
Six long months on a dust covered trail
Em
They say heaven's at the end
C
But so far it's been hell
G
And there's fire on the mountain
D
Lightning in the air
Am
Gold in them hills
C
And it's waiting for me
Em
There
Em C
We were diggin' and siftin' from five to five
Em C
Sellin' everything we found just to stay alive
Em C
Gold flowed free like the whiskey in the bars
Em
Sinnin' was the big thing lord
C
And Satan was the star
G
And there's fire on the mountain
D
Lightning in the air
Am
Gold in them hills
C Em (With Riff #1) C
And it's waiting for me there
Em C Em C Em C Em C
Em C
Dance hall girls were the evening treat
Em
Empty cartridges and blood lined
C
The gutters of the street
Em C
Men were shot down for the sake of fun
Em C
Or just to hear the noise of their forty-four guns
G
And there's fire on the mountain
D
Lightning in the air
Am
Gold in them hills
C Em (with Riff #1)
And it's waiting for me there
Em C
Now my widow she weeps by my grave
Em
Tears flow free for her man
C
She couldn't save
Em C
Shot down in cold blood by a gun that carried fame
Em C
All for a useless and no good worthless claim
G
And there's fire on the mountain
D
Lightning in the air
Am
Gold in them hills
C G
And it's waiting for me there
G
Fire on the mountain
D
Lightning in the air
Am
Gold in them hills
C Em C
And it's waiting for me there
