_ _ _ He was a simple _ man from the mountains
_ _ _ Those hills put [B] a song in [E] his heart
_ _ and how the miles
Can take you from wherever you are and how he felt when [B] he held his [E] guitar
_ _ _ _ He turned the heads of the ladies
_ _ Wound up in jail from [B] the men that [E] he'd fight
_ _ He had to wash down his suffering
with white pills
And whiskey because he was restless [B] and tortured _ [E]
inside
_ _ _ [A] Now he's crossed his last
[E] lonesome _ river
No rank strangers stone walls or [B] still bar
_ _ _ [E] Now he's back on the mountain [G#] where I hope he [E] finds peace _ _
[A] _ [E] God bless him [B] and rest him [E] royally _ _ _

_ Some said he was mean and cold-hearted _ _
Some said a victim
[B] of life's _ [E] circumstance _
Oh
But we all
Agree he was a man from the mountain who only he and [B] his God
_ [E] understand
_ [C#m] _
_ [A] Now he's crossed his last
[E] lonesome _ river
_ No rank strangers stone walls or [B] still bar _ _
_ [E] Now he's back on the mountain where I hope he finds peace
_ _ _ God bless him [B] and rest him [E] royally
_ _ _ _ Now he's back on the mountain where I hope he [A] finds peace _ _
_ _ _ [E] God bless him and rest him royally
