-Capo 4th fret- 

Verse 1:

G5                C5               G5
Two trees on the hillside of the mountain

D5              C5             G5
Always looking up towards the sky

G5             C5              G5
Reminds me of my mama and my papa

D5               C5                   G5
Who lived there 80 years before they died

Chorus:

G5                       C5             G5
Now the bright moon is shining in the valley

D5                     C5                  G5
That old wagon leans against a stack of hay

G5                  C5           G5
Two graves on the hillside by a cabin

D5                  C5             G5
My mom and dad are resting there today

Verse 2:
Oh the burning of the greenwood on the fireplace
The fallen snow around the red bud tree
The branches of the laurel by the creek bed
And the rippling waters of the gentle stream

Chorus

Verse 3:
Now papa used to talk about the young days
When he and mama first settled there
He spoke about the love of the mountains
That he and mama shared together there

Chorus
