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 C
There (Riff #1 Played Twice)

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

(Flute Solo)

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

All for a useless and no good worthless claim
