Oh, it's springtime in the mountains and I'm full of mountain dew 
                                          C

                                         C7                F

     G7                                                        C

                                                          C

Let's go down to the meeting house and wait till they start home 
                                                       C

                                     C7            F   
We'll run 'em down the corn row them sassy little misses 
      G7                                                      C

But let me tell you fore you go there's no one that's got my heart 
                                                C7              F

  G7                                                 C

                                          C

                                 C7      F   
I turned to page 32 and look at what I found 
  G7                                                          C
