Refrain G Em7 Am7 D7 G Em7 Am7 D7 In a mountain greenery where God paints the scenery G Em7 A7 Am7 D7 just two crazy people together. G Em7 Am7 D G Em7 Am7 D While you love your lover, let blues skies be your coverlet. G Em7 A7 Am7 D7 When it rains we'll laugh at the weather. G7 C6 Dm7 G7 C6 And if you're good I'll search for wood Dm7 G7 Em7 A7 Am7 D7 so you can cook while I stand looking. G Em7 Am7 D G Em7 Am7 D Beans could get no keener reception in a beanery. G Em7 Am7 D G Em7 Am7 D7 Bless our Mountain Greenery home!Verse 1:
