[Verse 1]
        A5          A
She's a blue ridge cradle
       F#m
She's a mother to some
    E
And home to the laughter
   D5         D
Of road weary ones
         A5           A
So we'll sing all the old songs
       F#m
Sing to Grandmamma Road
          E
And we'll sing 'cause we miss her
          D5             D
And we're sad she had to go

[Chorus]
           A5           D5
If I could see off this mountain
            A5           D5
Through the clouds in my eyes
        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain
       E          D5
On the nights the stars fell
    A5           D5
And see off this mountain
            A5          D5
Through the tears in my eyes
        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain
        E          D5       A5
And the stars fell from the skies

[Intro]

[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
        A5          A
In the air I hear a fiddle
        F#m
Down a-long Hickory Way
        E
And the mandolin guitar
     D5         D
Like we used to play
    A5      A
And down on Dunn's rock
        F#m
Brothers boasting a dare
   E
We tell them they're crazy
     D5              D
And pretend we don't care

[Chorus]
           A5           D5
If I could see off this mountain
            A5           D5
Through the clouds in my eyes
        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain
       E          D5
On the nights the stars fell
    A5           D5
And see off this mountain
            A5          D5
Through the tears in my eyes
        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain
        E          D5       A5
And the stars fell from the skies

[Verse 3]
(same as the first two)
        A5              A
And the mist taste like moonshine
        F#m
In the wind a carnival tune
   E
It soars with our laughter

But we'll all leave too soon
   A5              A
I raise a toast to family
   F#m
Put thanks in my glass
        E
In the arms of your loved ones
         D5             D
It's the only home that lasts

[Chorus]
           A5           D5
If I could see off this mountain
            A5           D5
Through the clouds in my eyes
        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain
       E          D5
On the nights the stars fell
    A5           D5
And see off this mountain
            A5          D5
Through the tears in my eyes
        A5           D5
I would see off this mountain
        E          D5       A5
And the stars fell from the skies
