BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAIN BOY - DOLLY PARTON (Live 1970) chords
Start Jamming...
From a shack by the mountain stream to a rural warning
So far from my Blue Ridge [Eb] mountain home
[F] [Ab] All the men I meet, they ain't woman friends
Like the
[Db] [Ab] old [Db] Virginians, [Ab] no, they ain't real
[Eb] Like my Blue [Bb] Ridge [Ab] mountain boy
[F] I [Ab] was just a little past eighteen
When I [Db] came to [Ab] New Orleans
I had never been beyond my [Eb] home state line
[Ab] There was a boy who loved me dearly
But I broke [Db] [Ab] severely [Db] when [Ab] I left [Eb] my Blue Ridge [Ab] mountain boy
[F] Oh, [Db] life was dull in my hometown
The lights [B] went out,
[Db] so I thought city life [Gb] was more [Ab] my style
The night's getting on, away from home
And it's [Db] easy to [Ab] go [Db] wrong
And [Ab] the men ain't kind
Like [Eb] my Blue Ridge mountain boy
[A]
And New Orleans, hell things in store
Things I'm [D] [A] in for
Every night, a different man [E] knocks on my door
[A] Oh, but late at night, when all is still
I can't [D] hear a [A] [D] thing [A] as I cry
For my [N] Blue Ridge
