Biography:
Yonder Mountain String Band is an American progressive bluegrass group from Nederland, Colorado.
The band has always played music by its own set of rules. Bending bluegrass, rock and countless other influences that the band cites, Yonder has pioneered a sound of their own. With their traditional lineup of instruments, the band may look like a traditional bluegrass band at first glance but they’ve created their own music that transcends any genre.

D A F#m F#m
D A A E G D
[Verse 1]
A E C#m B
It's a cold, cold moon out tonight
D A F#m
And it's a cold, cold point on your knife
D A A E G D
Could I call myself a man if I left by the morning light?
[Chorus]
C G D A
And I'd be 40 miles from Denver when you woke up all alone
G D D A C G
I'd be 40 miles from Denver and three days from my home
C G Em F C
In that cool mountain air, on an Appalachian trail
F C G
Ohh, life is better there
[Instrumental]

C G D A
G D D A C G
C G Em F C
F C G
[Verse 2]
A E C#m B
It's a lonely road to travel on
D A F#m
But I've stood here waiting much too long
D A A E G D
And I'd rather leave this minute than try to carry on
[Chorus]
C G D A
And I'd be 40 miles from Denver headed east bound on the track
G D D A C G
I'd be 40 miles from Denver and trying to get back
C G Em F C
To that cool mountain air, on an Appalachian trail
F C G
Ohh, life is better there

Could I call myself a man if I left by the morning light?

And I'd be 40 miles from Denver when you woke up all alone

In that cool mountain air, on an Appalachian trail

[Notes]
- The intro tab is an approximation. It attempts to bring in the melody
of the banjo solo. Though the rhythm guitar seems to play 'G D Bm A',
it doesn't fit well for incorporating the melody, so I use "G D Em D'.
- Instrumental sections use "Verse + Chorus" chord sequence
