Roy Lee

He [E]was a simple m[A]an from the m[E]ountains,
Those hills put a [B7]song in his h[E]eart
And how the miles can take [A]you from wherever yo[E]u are
And how he[A] felt when he h[B7]eld his g[E]uitar

He turned the h[A]eads of the l[E]adies,
Wound up in ja[A]il from the men that [E]he'd fight
Had to wa[A]sh down his suffering with white pills a[E]nd whiskey
Cause he was res[A]tless and [B7]tortured[E], inside

Chorus:
Now[E] he's crossed his[A] last lone[E]some river,
Knowing strangers, and st[B7]onewalls are sti[E]ll far
Now he is back in the m[A]ountains were I hope he f[E]inds peace
God Bless him, re[A]st him, Roy[E] Lee
Instrumental:

Some[E] said he was m[A]ean and cold[E]-hearted
Some said a victim of [B7]life's ci[E]rcumstance
Oh, but we all ag[A]ree, he was a man from the [E]mountains
Only he and his [A]God underst[E]ands

Chorus:

tag:
Now he's back on the m[A]ountain where I hope he find[E]s peace
God Bless him, an[A]d rest him, Ro[E]y Lee
