I was b[C]orn on Stagger Mo[F]untain in the s[C]unshine and the sn[F]ow
And le[C]aving was the f[Bb]irst mist[F]ake I m[G]ade
But I h[C]ungered for the sh[G]adows in the v[F]alley down bel[C]ow
And a g[C]irl that danced the t[Bb]une the devil pl[C]ayed
Her sm[C]ile was like the bl[F]inding light of s[C]unshine on the sn[F]ow
And the fl[C]ashing of her h[Bb]air was bl[F]ack as s[G]in.
And her b[C]ody set the sm[G]okes of hell a-b[F]oiling in my sk[C]ull
When the f[C]iddle of the d[Bb]evil made her sp[C]in.
Born in s[F]unshine (sunshine) high on the m[C]ountain,
Where the [G]air [F] is pure and c[C]old;
But there's d[G]arkness [F] in the sh[C]adows
In the c[Bb]anyons of my s[C]oul.
[C]
The l[C]antern cast her sh[F]adow like a d[C]emon on the w[F]all
And the n[C]aked sweat was gl[Bb]eaming [F]on her sk[G]in;
Then the ro[C]om was spinning cl[G]oser as her cl[F]othes began to f[C]all
And the e[C]agle started sc[Bb]reaming in my br[C]ain
Then I s[C]aw the laughing da[F]gger and I he[C]ard the devil scr[F]eam
And her ble[C]eding heart was b[Bb]eating [F]in my h[G]and.
Then the d[C]arkness flew aw[G]ay and I was st[F]anding by a tr[C]ee
With a ha[C]nging rope a-d[Bb]anglin' from a l[C]imb.
Born in s[F]unshine (sunshine) high on the m[C]ountain,
Where the [G]air [F] is pure and c[C]old;
