Big Mountain

F          G              Am
It's three o'clock in the morning
F          G       Am
At the convenience store
F          G          Am
I’ve been working two years here
F              G     Am
Since I turned sixty-four
     F               G       Am
But tonight the full moon is shining
       F           G       Am
On the canyon that was our home
         F         G           Am
Though I no longer pack in the horses
        F             G    Am
On this land is where we belong
     F        G    Am
They moved us into Flagstaff
F         G           Am
Gave us a brown tract home
F     G               Am
Lilly died two months later
F          G    Am
Now I live all alone
      F              G       Am
But tonight the full moon is shining
       F           G       Am
On the canyon that was our home
           F           G       Am
Though she lies in the dust of Flagstaff
        F             G     Am
On this land is where she belongs
F          G          Am
First they put in the roadway
F             G    Am
Then came the powerlines
F       G              Am
The big trucks started rolling
F                 G       Am
When they started digging the mine
      F              G       Am
But tonight the full moon is shining
       F           G       Am
On the canyon that was our home
           F         G           Am
Though the water and silence are gone now
        F             G    Am
On this land is where we belong
       F                 G           Am
On the land there was no payment for water
       F                 G           Am
On the land there was no payment for rent
    F           G         Am
The sun and the soil they provided
        F                G        Am
And you didn't need much money to spend
    F               G            Am
But now it's four o'clock in the morning
F         G        Am
At the convenience store
F                 G        Am
I've got two more hours to be here
      F                 G       Am
And I don't think I can take anymore
         F              G.      Am
'Cause tonight the full moon is shining
       F           G       Am
On the canyon that was our home
       F        G       Am
In the valley below Big Mountain
        F             G    Am
On this land is where we belong
      F              G       Am
And tonight the full moon is shining
       F           G       Am
On the canyon that was our home
       F        G       Am
In the valley below Big Mountain
        F             G    Am
On this land is where we belong
        F             G    Am
On this land is where we belong
        F             G    Am
On this land is where we belong
