He met her in the fall of 93 in the hills of Tennessee
                      C
She was barely seventeen
                             Em
He was tall and strong and lean
                           Am
They were deep in love by June
 Em                        Am   D
Hand in hand beneath that moon
 D
And she'd
 G                               C
Sing a little blue ridge mountain song
                     G
And he'd just hum along
                            C
They'd dance all night til dawn
                    Em
On a hillside all alone
                               Am
They were young and they were free
                   Em
Like a mountain melody
                     Am   D
In love as they could be
 D                     G
Singin' that blue ridge song

 G                                    C
She married in her momma's wedding gown
                              G
Bought a house and settled down
                        C                                Em
He worked drivin' all around, haulin' logs from town to town
                           Am
And he'd come home every night
 Em                                   Am   D
She'd be waiting in the front porch light
 D
And she'd
 G                                  C
Sing a little blue ridge mountain song
                      G
And he'd just hum along
                              C
They'd dance all night til dawn
                          Em
On the front porch all alone
                                Am
They were young and they were free
                    Em
Like a mountain melody
                      Am
In love as they could be
 D                         G
Singin' that blue ridge song

G                                   C
They couldn't tell him what was wrong
                        G
For they just didn't know
                   C                        Em
It wasn't very long, til Jesus called her home
                           Am
Then he got down on his knees
 Em                              Am   D
Said, God don't take my love from me
 D
Just let her
 G                                   C
Sing a little blue ridge mountain song
                     G
like she has all along
                           C
I'll dance with her til dawn
                      Em
On a hillside all a-lone
                      Am
And we'll spend eternity
                     Em
Like a mountain melody
                  Am  D
In love as we can be
 D                       G
Singin' that blue ridge song

 G                         C
Now he lives there all alone
                                 G
In the house that they called home
                             C
In his heart there lies a void
                           Em
From the absence of her voice
                          Am
And he lays down every night
 Em                                  Am   D
And dreams about that front porch light
 D
Where she'd
 G                                   C
Sing a little blue ridge mountain song
                      G
And he'd just hum along
                             C
They'd dance all night til dawn
                       Em
On the hillside all alone
                                Am
They were young and they were free
                    Em
Like a mountain melody
                      Am  D
In love as they could be
 D                        G
Singin' that blue ridge song
 G                              C
A little blue ridge mountain song
 (singin' that blue ridge song)
 G                                   C
Sing a little blue ridge mountain song

A little blue ridge mountain song
