Marshall Tucker Band - Fire On The Mountian guitar chord

Em C

Took my fam'ly away from my Carolina home

Em C

Had dreams about the West and started to roam

Em C

Six long months on a dust covered trail

Em C

They say heaven's at the end but so far it's been hell

chorus

C G D

And there's fire on the mountain, lightnin' in the air

Am C Em

gold in them hills and it's waitin' for me there

Em C

We were diggin' and siftin' from five to five

Em C

sellin' everything we found just to stay alive

Em C

gold flowed free like the whiskey in the bars

Em C

sinnin' was the big thing, lord and Satan was his star

chorus

FLUTE SOLO(Em-C-Em-C-Em-C-Em-C)

Em C

Dance hall girls were the evenin' treat

Em C

Empty cartridges and blood lined the gutters of the street

Em C

Men were shot down for the sake of fun

Em C

Or just to hear the noise of their forty four guns

chorus

Em C

Now my widow she weeps by my grave

Em C

Tears flow free for her man she couldn't save

Em C

Shot down in cold blood by a gun that carried fame

Em C

All for a useless and no good worthless claim
