    Tom Proutt
    Circle c


    INTRO E B7 E
    E B7 E E7
    MY MORNING EYES DON’T SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY
    A C# F#m D7
    TILL WORK IS ALMOST DONE ABOUT HALFWAY
    B7 E A
    RISING WELL BEFORE THE DAWN
    E B7 E
    AND GETTING HOME JUST BEFORE THE SUN IS GONE

    E B E E7
    WHEN WE WERE KIDS WE BOUGHT THIS LITTLE MOUNTAIN HOMEPLACE
    A C# F#m D7
    IT’S ALWAYS BEEN A DREAM TO MOVE THERE ONE DAY
    B7 E A
    UNTILL THEN WE’LL RIDE THE RACK
    E B7 E E7
    KNOWING ONE DAY WE’LL FIND A WAY TO MAKE IT BACK

    ChorusG C
    JUST LET ME RAISE MY GAMECOCKS,FILL MASON JARS WITH SHINE
    D7 G
    SACKS FILLED UP WITH MUSHROOMS TAKE EM HOME TO BATTER-FRY
    C a m
    THE HOGLOT AND THE HEIFFERS WILL BE OUR SHORT-TERM GAIN
    D7 G
    ALL OUR OWN LEFT-OVERS ON OUR MOUNTAINTOP DOMAIN

    Break OUR RETIREMENT’S THE RIDGE ABOVE OUR CABIN

    ONE DAY WE’LL MAKE THE LIVING WORTH THE HAVING

    NOW WE WORK THE HOURS

    LATER ON YOU AND I WILL SMELL THE FLOWERS


    DAD WILL CUT THE TIMBER NOW AND THEN

    TO HELP TO PAY THE LANDNOTE AND TO SPEND

    AS MUCH TIME AS WE CAN

    AT OUR CABIN HOME THIS SIDE OF SPENCER MOUNTAIN
    Chorus

    Inst break and out
