[Verse 1]
F Am Dm G
Mother went up to the mountain, she said it was for gold
Bm Dm G
But all these drums and indians, oh no.
F Am Dm G
Said buddy was a good boy, but just not for me
Bm Dm G
Come on now pack your bags, time to leave
[Bridge 1]
Bm C/E
But Mom, are you dead?
F C/E Dm C
Are you free from this life you've left for such red faced man
Bm C/E F
Oh ma, oh please don't leave.
[Verse 2]
F Am Dm G
Back to the city with high heels, gold rings upon her hands
Bm Dm G
Get up son it's time to run, jump and land.
F Am Dm G
In a wagon with no wheels and no place to go
Bm Dm G
She just smiles and nods her head 'oh welcome home'
[Bridge 2]
Bm C/E F C/E
But oh those mines, Can't you see, we're just much too deep for your sins
Dm C Bm C F
Though you buried them beneath the mountaintops
[Chorus]
Dm F Bb
Where you going with your coonskin boots?
C Dm G
well I just want to be with you.
Dm F Bm
I know you never said that you would stay
C Dm G
forever and it's getting late
Dm F Bm
Well I don’t want to be a broken boy
C Dm G
so sad, alone, and oh so coy
Dm F Bm
Why’d you got to be so god damn cruel?
C Dm G
well I just want to be with you, but do you...?
[Outro]
F Am Dm G
A mother went back to the mountain she said it was for love
Bm Dm G F F
but all those mountain men are buried, with their lust and her gold rings
