[Verse 1]
[D]There [C]was[G][D][C][G][D]
a man that
lived in the hills [C]all by him[D]self
Chin whiskers hanging off
his face in the [C]tree
There's [G]a hangin' [D]a bull elk
The [G]only friend he's got in this world
[D]Is a big old wild cat
[A]That [D]sleeps down at the foot of the cave,
[C]kills [G]off [D]the big rats
I think I'd like to see this guy,
well I [G]might just [D]maybe
But everybody down in
the little bitty town,
they all say he's crazy
I [G]asked a fella what the story was,
[D]asked him just what happened
He said, boy sit down,
let me tell you about [C]this
[G]mountain [D]wild man
Mountain [C]wild man [G]up on
the [D]mountain
Mountain [C]wild man [G]up on
the [D]mountain[C][G][D]
He had a job and a wife
and a little bitty boy
[C]An d [G]things were just [D]fine
Till he caught that woman
out of running around
that it kind of [G]messed up [D]his mind
so he [G]went to the bar
and he had a few drinks
[D]an d he did a lot of thinking
he could either kill that cheating woman
or [C]drown his [G]sorrows of [D]drinking
well they knew he couldn't
kill that cheating woman
they put [C]him [G]in a [D]prison
and his heart and his pride
were too damn strong for
[C]him to [G]go to drink[D]ing
So he [G]broke the bonds of society
an[D]d started walking
He bought a rifle and an axe
and a big Bowie knife
[C]An d [G]went to the [D]mountain
Mountain [C]wild man [G]up on
the [D]mountain
Mountain [C]wild man [G]up on
the [D]mountain[C][G][D]
Boy, I'm gonna tell you something
Your mama [C]probably never [D]told you
Just why she never told you about your pa
[C]And why [D]he left you
[G]Now you've heard the story
Of [D]why he left this land
Well boy, I know who your pa is
[C]He's that [G]mountain wild [D]man
Mountain [C]wild man
[G]Up on the [D]mountain
Mountain [C]wild man
[G]Up on the [D]mountain, mountain [C]wild man
[G]Up on the [D]mountain, mountain wild man
Up on the mountain
