verse 1 

F 
Well a way up high in the mountains 
               Bb     F 
In the kingdom of the Pine 
  Bb                     F 
I live with the best old pal I know 
     C                 F 
That old white mule of mine 

verse 2 


When they have a dance in the valley 
          Bb         F 
I quit my job at the still 
  Bb              F       
I climb aboard my old white mule 
      C               F 
An go ridin' down the hill 



[Refrão]
Oh his back's caved in and he's mighty thin 
         Bb                 F 
But his legs are strong and fine 

I sing a song as we go along 
               C       F 
This old white mule of mine

He shares my joys and sorrows 
   Bb                   F 
He shares my bed and my wine 
   Bb            F

The other night we quarreled 
                   Bb    F 
And I called him a nasty name 
      Bb                 F 
So he kicked me down the mountain side 
               C        F 
But I love him just the same 


[Refrão]
Oh His back's caved in and he's mighty thin 
        Bb                  F 
But his legs are strong and fine 

So I sing a song as he carries me on

This old white mule of mine

An this old white mule of mine
