Shane Smith The Saints - The Mountain Chords

[Chorus 1]
N.C.
Take me home to the mountain
N.C.
The land my mother used to sing
N.C.
But beware the mouth of the dragon
N.C.
In his lungs, the coal he keeps
N.C.
In his lungs, the coal he keeps

[Verse 1]
 Dm               C           Dm
"Fare thee well," shouted the preacher
 Dm                  C
"Fare thee well," he sang
     Dm                  C            Dm
This man down inside the mouth of the dragon
F         G        Dm
Bound for heaven's gates
F         G        Dm
Bound for heaven's gates

[Verse 2]
Dm               C       Dm
All the homes as dark as molasses
Dm                   C
But the house of the Lord
    Dm           C       Dm
The man who fell in that mine
   F          G      Dm
Is wrapped up on his porch
   F           G      Dm
He wrapped him on his porch

Dm      C           Dm
Take me home to the mountain
    Dm      C              Dm
The land my mother used to sing
      Dm       C            Dm
But beware the mouth of the dragon
       F          G         Dm
In his lungs, the coal he keeps
       F          G         Dm
In his lungs, the coal he keeps

[Verse 3]
 N.C.        C            Dm
"Hallelujah, I slayed the dragon"
    Dm                  C
The son of the dead man sang
 Dm              C           Dm
"I lit a match inside of the shaft
    F          G     Dm
And burned his lungs away
    F          G     Dm
And burned his lungs away"

[Chorus 2]
N.C.
I remember the mountain
N.C.
The tales my mother used to sing
N.C.
Of the father killed by the dragon
N.C.
And the son who avenged his name
