VERSE 1

 4  5    -4   4  -4
On the first of May

-4 -5b 5  -4   6
It is mov-ing day

   6   -6  -6b   6   7   7   -5b
Spring is here, so blow your job,

 -6    -6   5  5 -6b
Throw your job a-way

  6    -6  -6b  6  -6b
Now's the time to trust

-6b 7   -6  -6b  -6
To your wan-der lust

-6 -6b  6   5   -6b  -6b 5
In the cit-y's dust you wait

Must you wait?  Just you wait


REFRAIN

7  7  7    6    -5b  5  -4
In a moun-tain green-er-y

  4    4     4    5   6  -6b -6
Where God paints the scen-er-y

 7    7   7  -6  -6b 7  -7  6   6
Just two craz-y peo-ple to-geth-er

  7    7   7    6   -5b 5
While you love your lov-er

-4    4    4   4   -4   6  -6b -6
Let blue skies be your cov-er-let

 7   7    7    -6    -6b   7  -7   6   6
When it rains we'll laugh at the weath-er.

 7   7   7     -4
And if you're good

 7      7    7   -4
I'll search for wood

 7  7   7   -4
So you can cook

  7   7   7    -4   6
While I stand look-ing.

  7     7    7  6
Beans could get no

-5b   5 -4  4   4    4 5  6  -6b -6
Keen-er re-cep-tion in a bean-er-y

  7    7   7    -6b  -7   7 -6  7
Bless our moun-tain green-er-y home.


VERSE 2

Simple cooking means
More than French cuisines
I've a banquet planned which is
Sanwiches and beans
Coffee's just as grant
With a little sand
Eat and you'll grown fatter boy
S'matter boy? Atta boy


REFRAIN 2

In a mountain greenery
Where God paints the scen-er-y
Just two craz-y peo-ple to-geth-er
How we love sequestering
Where no pests are pestering
No dear, mama holds us in tether
Mosquitos here
Won't bit youe dear
I'll let them sting
Me on the finger
We could find no cleaner
Retreat from life's machinery
Than our mountain greenery home

When the world was young

-6  7   -7  7   6  5    5   5     5   5
Old Fa-ther Ad-am with sin would grap-ple

4    5   -6b 6  -5b -4 -4   -4   -4 -4
So we're en-tit-led to just one ap-ple

-5b 5  -4  4   4   4    4
I mean to make ap-ple sauce.

6   5   -5b   6   -7
Un-der-neath the bough

-6      7  -7  7   6
We'll learn a les-son

5    5   5   5  5
From Mis-ter O-mar

-4   5   -6b  6   -5b -4 -4 -4 -4 -4
Be-neath the eyes of no Pa and no Ma

-5b 5  -4  4   4   4   4
Old la-dy na-ture is boss

 5    6   -6  -6
Wash-ing dish-es,

 -6b  -6   5    5
Catch-ing fish-es

-6b -6  5   5     6
In the run-ning stream

 -6    5     6   -6   -6 -6b -6  5  5
We'll curse the smell a Cit-ron-el-la

-6b -6 -4   -4  6
E-ven when we dream

 6    5  -5b 6   -7
Head up on the ground


-5    7   -7  7   6  5   5   5   5   5
Your down-ey pil-low is just a bould-er.

 4     5  -6b  6  -5b  -4 -4    -4  -4 -4
I'll have new dim-ples be-fore I'm old-er

-5b   5  -4   4   4   4   4
But life is peach-es and cream

 7   7   7    -4
And if you're good

7      7     7  -4
I'll search for wood,

7   7   7   -4
So you can cook

  7   7   7    -4   6
While I stand look-ing

  7     7    7   6  -5b  5
Beans could get no keen-er

-4  4   4   4  5   6  -6b -6
Re-cep-tion in a bean-er-y

  7    7   7   -6b    -7   7 -6  7
Bless our moun-tain green-er-y home.

ENJOY!!
