A A D/A D/A A A D/A

Chorus 1: (a capella until you reach "to a Cajun.."

Oh, [A] play me some mountain [D] music

like [A] grandma and grandpa used to play [D]

Then I'll [A] float on down the riv-[D]er

to a Ca-[E]jun hidea-[A]way.

Verse 1:

[A] Drift away like Tom [D] Sawyer

Ride a raft[A] with ol' Huck [D] Finn

Take a nap[A] like Rip Van Winkle,

daze [G] dreamin' a-[E]gain.

Chorus 2--same chords as chorus one for the first 3 lines. Then:

to a Ca-[Bm]jun hidea-[E]way.

(guitar solo)

Verse 2 (same chords as 1)

Swim across the river

Just to prove that I'm a man

Spend the day bein' lazy

Just bein' nature's friend

v3

Climb a long tall hick'ry

Bend it over, skinnin' cats

Playin' baseball with chert rocks

Usin' sawmill slabs for bats

Bridge:

(also a capella, like first chorus, until you reach "'cause that's where..")

Play some [A] back-home come-on [D] music

that [A] comes from the heart [D]

Play [A] something with lots of feel-[D]in'

'cause that's where [Bm] music has to [E] start.

(chorus 2)

on last line "...a cajun hideaway aay-aay-aaaiiiaay" - then a drum solo

ensues and the tempo increases--go back to the first chorus for the ending,

but play all of the chords.

Enjoy!
