Way Back In The Mountains
Recorded by Merle Haggard
Written by Max D. Barnes and Merle Haggard
[3/4 time]

C G7 C
How far can a man stretch a dollar
C7 F
I thought as I counted my pay
C
I told myself over and over
G7
There must be some other way

C G7 C
No light at the end of the tunnel
C7 F
The whole world is falling apart
C
And I need this load on my shoulders
G7 C
Like I need a hole in my heart

F C
I'm gonna move way back in the mountains
G7
Build a cabin nobody can find
C F C
I'm gonna move way back in the mountains
F C G7 C
I'm gonna leave this old city behind

G7 C
How does a man hold a woman
C7 F
When he's standing on unsteady ground
C
She's wantin' things I can't give her
G7
Things that make her world go round

C G7 C
I'm trading this microwave oven
C7 F
For a cast iron pot bellied stove
C
If all I can make is a living
F C G7 C
Hey I should have moved back a long time ago

Repeat #3

F C
I'm gonna move way back in the mountains
F C G7 F C
Build a cabin nobody can find.
