Over The Mountain
John Hartford
Bluegrass: An American Tradition
Banjo tuned  Eb, Capo 4, Key: A    

     A                      D
Like always my heart, it is easy
                          A
Not a care in this world have I
                         D
Cause I am in love with Nellie
           E7               A
I couldn't forget it if I tried

Chorus:

Yes, far away over the mountain
Where little birds sing in the trees
And the cabin is covered with ivy
My honey is waiting for me

Yes over, yes over the mountain
Where the little birds sing in the trees
And the cabin is covered with ivy
And my honey, waits for me

Instrumental:

Today, I bid good-bye to my honey
That day I'll never forget
Her tears bubbled up from their slumber
I fancy that I see them yet

They looked like little pearls in the ocean
As she wept her tears of love
Saying my Johnny, my boy, don't forget me
To be here and or above

Chorus;

Yes over, yes over the mountain
