# Brave Mountaineers By Gordon Lightfoot From the Don Quixote LP I use a Capo on the first fret. [A] [G] [D] [A] [D] [D]Born in the country & I [G]like that country [Em]smile Of the [A]little girls & boys, they re[G]mind me of a [D]child That I knew and a [G]big harvest [Em]moon That shone by suppertime in the [G]dusty after[D]noon, And I need to [G]be there when the autumn wind goes sin[D]ging Through the trestle we would [A]climb Like [D]brave mountain[G]eers we never were much [D]bothered by [A7]time. Born in the country and I like that country song We played for just a nickle every time we got to town And I bought you a dime diamond ring In the hayloft we would play we were princesses & kings And I need to be there when the world get's too heavy And the shadows cross my mind Like Brave Mountaineers we never were much bothered by time Born in the country and I like that country way Of the uncles, aunts & cousins & the card games they would play While the young ones slept overhead Beneath the quilts that mother made when all the prayers were said And I need to be there when the autumn wind goes singing Through the trestle we would climb Like Brave Mountaineers we never were much bothered by time And I need to be there when the world get's too heavy And the shadows cross my mind Like Brave Mountaineers we never were much bothered by time Dan
