Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Dm][G][D][Am][Dm][D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
Well I [D]wandered
way back in the mountains
I was searching for fortune and [C]fame[D]
I found where the water runs
[G]deep from the [D]hills
They [G]call it [D]the medicine [G]springs
They [D]call it the [A]medicine [D]springs

[Verse 2]
[D]
It was there that I met a fair maiden
Yellow hair and big eyes of [C]blue[D]
She told me one day she [G]loved only [D]me
That [G]she'd [D]forever be [G]true
That [D]she'd [A]forever be true

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 3]
Well I [D]wanted the best for my darlin'
But my pockets were [A]empty [D]and bar[C]e[D]
My love was so great for [G]that starlett of [D]mine
I [G]took what [D]an other man [G]had
I [D]took what an[A]other man had
[D]

[Verse 4]
As I sit here alone in this jailhouse
With a letter I can't hardly [C]read[D]
It said my darlin' has [G]left
this ol' [D]world
She's a [G]waitin' in [D]heaven for [G]me
She's a [D]waitin' in [A]heaven for [D]me

[Interlude 2]
[Dm][G][D][C][D][Dm][D][A][D]

[Verse 5]
Some [D]day I'll go back to the mountains
Where I'll spend the rest of my [C]days[D]
And the water that runs
from [G]the side of the [D]hill
Will [G]water her [D]flowery [G]grave
Will [D]water her [A]flowery [D]grave
[D]
