_ _ _ 39 was a bad year in these mountains, Daddy tried to do the best [G] he could.
[Dm] It weren't hard in the mountain timber, But [F] the ice was on [E] and he couldn't get [Dm] the
glue.
_ _ _ _ Winter came and it was a bad [Am] year, The freeze and the north wind [G] did blow.
_ [F] _
[Dm] 38 days the ice was on the timber, _ They were the last days [Em] my family [Dm] was home. _ _
[F] Oh [Em] Lord, [Dm] it was cold, _ _ _ _ _ Daddy's mood seemed to be a-changin'.
He would cry and Mama [G] would pray, [F] Lord melt the ice, we can work the timber.
_ _ We can't hope [Em] outlaw [Dm] this way.
_ _ _ _ Sunday morning, Daddy called me to _ take the mule right away [G] from here.

Saw my brothers and sisters on the cold floor, Mama lying there across [G] the bed.
[F] Daddy [Dm] sitting there with his eyes wide open, They [F] were cold, [Em] they were stiff, [Dm] they were dead.
_ _ [F] Oh [Em] Lord, [Dm] it was cold.
[G] I wonder what [F] was in [Dm] Daddy's mind, On [G] that cold [F] winter night.
