Intro in C5 
 
C5 
One evening as the sun went down, and the jungle fires were  
         C5    
burning, down the track came a ho-bo hiking. And he said "Boys I'm not 
             F5            C5           F5   C5     F5            
turning. I'm headed for a land that's far a-way be-side the crystal 
G5             C5  
fountains. So come with me we'll go and see the Big Rock Candy Mountains." 
 

       C5                                     F5                    C5 
In the Big Rock Can-dy Moun-tains. There's a land that's fair and bright,    
          F5                 C5              F5               G5 
Where the hand-outs grow on bushes and you sleep out every night. 
          C5                              F5                C5  
Where the box-cars all are empty and the sun shines every-day. 
       F5             C5            F5         C5          F5        C5 
On the birds and the bees,and the cigarette trees, the lemonade springs,  
          F5         C5            G5                 C5 
where the blue bird sings in the Big Rock Candy Mountains.  
 

       C5                                 F5                C5     
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains, all the cops have wooden legs  
        F5                  C5                    F5 
and the bull-dogs all have rubber teeth and the hens lay soft-boiled 
G5         C5                                        F5 
eggs. The farmer's trees are full of fruit and the barns are full of 
C5            F5        C5              F5        C5               F5          C5  
hay. Oh, I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow, where the rain don't fall, 
    F5           C5           G5                 C5   
the wind  don't blow in the Big Rock Candy Moun-tains.    
 

C5                                    F5                    C5  
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains. You nev - er change your socks.  
        F5                  C5               F5                   G5   
and the lit-tle streams of al-cohol come a trick-ling down the rocks. 
    C5                                       F5                   C5 
The brakemen have to tip their hats and the rail-road bulls are blind. 
          F5       C5           F5       C5             F5           C5             F5   C5 
There's a lake of stew and of whiskey too,  you can pad-dle all round'em in a big canoe 
       G5                  C5  
in the Big Rock Can-dy Moun-tains     
 

       C5                             F5                   C5 
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains, the jails are  made of tin. 
F5                       C5             F5               G5   
And you can walk right  out again, as soon as you are in. 
      C5                                  F5             C5 
There ain't no short-handled shovels. No axes, saws or picks 
    F5     C5              F5         C5               F5        C5 
I'm gonna stay where you sleep all day, where they hung the jerk  
    F5        C5           G5               C5 
who invented work in the Big Rock Can-dy Moun-tains     
 
 
     F5       C5        F5      C5            G5                 C5 
I'll see you all this coming fall, in the Big Rock Candy Moun-tains.
