When [G] I was young and in my [D] prime
I left my home in Caro-[G]line
Now all I do is sit and [D] pine, 
for all those folks I left be-[G]hind
{soc}
I got the Blue Ridge mountain [D] blues, 
and I'll sit right here and [G] say
My grip is packed to travel, and I'm [C] scratching gravel 
to that [D] Blue Ridge far a-[G]way
{eoc}
{sos}
I got the Blue Ridge mountain [D] blues, 
and I'll sit right here and [G] say
My grip is packed to travel, and I'm [C] scratching gravel 
to that [D] Blue Ridge far a-[G]way
{eos}
I'm [G] goin' to stay right by my [D] Pa,
I'm goin' to do right by my [G] Ma
I'll hang around the cabin [D] door, 
no work nor worry any-[G]more
{soc}
I got the Blue Ridge mountain [D] blues, 
goin' to see my old dog [G] Tray
Gonna hunt the possum where the [C] corn tops blossom
In my [D] Blue Ridge far a-[G]way
{eoc}
{sos}
I got the Blue Ridge mountain [D] blues, 
and I'll sit right here and [G] say
My grip is packed to travel, and I'm [C] scratching gravel 
to that [D] Blue Ridge far a-[G]way
{eos} 
I [G] see a window with a [D] light,
I see a two heads of snowy [G] white
I seem to hear them both re-[D]cite, 
"Where is my wand'rin boy to-[G]night?"
{soc}
I got the Blue Ridge mountain [D] blues, 
and I stand right here to [G] say
Every day I'm countin' 'till I [C] climb that mountain
In my [D] Blue Ridge far a-[G]way
{eoc}
