[C] [C]
One evening as the sun went down and the jungle fire was burning
Down the track came a hobo hiking and he said boys.
I'm not turning
I'm headed for a land that's far [Dm] away
Beside the crystal [G] fountain.
[C] So come with me
We'll go and see the big rock candy mountain in the big rock candy mountains
[F] There's a land that's fair [C] and bright [F] where the handouts grow [C] on bushes and you sleep out [G] every night
[C] Where the boxcars all are empty [F] and the sun shines [C] every day
On the birds and the [F] bees and the [C] cigarette trees the lemonade [F] Springs where [G] the bluebirds sings in the big rock [C] candy mountains
in the big rock candy mountains
[F] All the cops have [C] wooden legs [F] and the bulldogs all [C] have rubber teeth and the hens lay [G] soft-boiled eggs
[C] The farmers trees are full of [F] fruit and the barns are [C] full of hay
[F] Oh, I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow where the rain don't fall the wind [G] don't blow in the big rock [C] candy mountains
in the big rock candy mountains
[Am] You never [C] change your socks [F] and the little streams [C] of alcohol come [G] a trickling down the rocks
[C] The brakemen have to tip [Am] their hats and the railroad bulls [C] are blind
There's a lake of stew and a whiskey too.
[F] You can paddle all around them in a big [G] canoe in the big rock [C] candy mountains
in the big rock candy mountains
The jails are made of tin [F] and you can [C] walk right out again as soon as [G] you are in
[C] There ain't no short handle [Am] shovels.
No axes [C] saws or picks
[Am] I'm [C] a gonna stay where you sleep all day where they hung the Turk that invented [G] work in the big rock candy [C] mountains
[F] [C] [F] [C] I'll see you all this coming [G] fall in the big rock candy [C] mountains
[F] [C] [F] [C]
I'll see you all this [G] coming fall in the big rock
