  			Over The Mountain 

D                        G          D 
Over the mountain I will build us a cabin  
                         Bm 
Over the mountain I will build us a home  
      Em                         Bm       
We’ll sit by the fire won't the juniper smell good  
Em               Em7 
Over the mountain  

D                   G            D 
Take me my lady and give me some babies  
                         Bm 
Share all my burdens and sew on my clothes  
Em                        Bm       
Life is a fountain we’ll drink it bone dry  
Em               Em7 
Over the mountain  

G                       D 
April will promise you blossoms my lady  
G                           Bm 
Creek waters risin' and the mares gonna foal  
Em                       Bm       
Gather the creatures and bring them on down 
Em               Em7 
On down the mountain  

I will plant us a garden here next to the forest  
Dig us a well there with water so pure  
Water so pure and as sweet as the sunshine  
Over the mountain  

I will build us a cabin here in the tall wood  
Bottom land cedar and Snake River stone  
We will sit by the fire won't the juniper smell good  
Over the mountain
