G C G C
Pretty as an angel from the day that she was born
G C G D
Skin as fair as Lily's hair, as golden as the corn
G C G C
They knew that she was special from the moment she first cried
G C D G
She was a mountain angel certified
G C G C
She was her momma's baby, she was her daddy's pride
G C G C
Good at home, at church and school, at everything she tried
G C G C
Everybody's darlin' led a charmed and peaceful life
G C D G
The perfect mountain angel 'til he arrived

G C G
And ohh, she fell so deeply
G C G
Ooooh, she couldn't stop
G C G C
She gave herself to him, milled it completely
G C D G
He lifted her so high he let her drop

G C G C
She gave up everything for him that mattered in her life
G C G D
All the others that had loved her and she vowed to be his wife
G C G C
She dreamed of bearing children in an ivy-covered house
G C D G
The mountain angel's sunshine turned to clouds
G C G C
The wicked handsome stranger left the way he came
G C
Broke her heart and broke her mind
G D
She never was the same
Em C
They say he was the devil
G C
That had come to steal her soul
G C D G
She never loved another it was told
G C
They say she had a baby
G C
Some say that it had died
G C
They it's just as well
G D
As it had been the devil's child
G C
They say good conquers evil
G C
But here, evil won the prize
G C D G
So the mountain angel took to the wild

G C G
And ooh, she couldn't take it
G C G
Years passed and she had long since lost her mind
G C G C
She waited for him as her beauty faded
G C D G
Her parents died from grief before their time

G C G C
She tried to gather pieces of her life, they wouldn't fit
G C G D
Beside the tiny grave deep in the woods is where she'd sit
G C G C
Talking to the child, herself, to him, who knew for sure
G C D G
Possessed they say by satan's insane lure

G C G C
High a'top the mountain, for years they say she's seen
G C G D
Looking down upon the town where she had once been queen
G C G C
She'd sneak around the playground, watch the little children play
G C D G
They'd see the crazy lady then run away
G C G C
They say she roamed these hills for years, wearing not a stitch
G C G D
The lovely mountain angel now thought to be a witch
G C
She made those wailing mournful sounds
G C
That you could hear for miles
G C D G
Long after she laid down upon her baby's grave and died

G C G
And ooh, her ghost is callin'
G C G
She's waiting for the ones that she adored
G C G
Through spring and summer, fall when snow is fallin'
G C D G
Her spirit roams these hills forever more
G C D G
The mountain angel's voices ever more
