'Big Rock Candy Mountain' by Burl Ives - Guitar Tutorial
Gtp chords: Big Rock Candy Mountain
Song lyrics:
G
Oh the buzzing of the bees at the cigarette trees
C G
Near the soda water fountain
D7 G
Where the lemonade springs and the bluebird sings
D7 G
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
On a summer day in the month of May
D7 G
A burly bum came hiking
Down a shady lane through the sugar cane
D7 G
He was looking for his liking
D7 G
As he strolled along he sang a song
D7 G
Of the land of milk and honey
Where a bum can stay for many a day
D7 G
And he won't need any money
Repeat #1
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
D7 G
The cops have wooden legs
The bulldogs all have rubber teeth
D7 G
And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs
D7 G
The farmers trees are full of fruit
D7 G
And the barns are full of hay
I want to go where there ain't no snow
Where the sleet don't fall the winds don't blow
D7 G
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
Repeat #1
