CAm
met a man who could not lie for silver
CAm
met a man who could not sing for gold
GAm
got out & his hands were shakin'
GAmDAm
got out somewhere down the road
Chorus
------
DAmDAm
gonna be . . . all his life
DAm
livin' . . . on mountain time
met a man walkin' by a river
his steps were all his own
got out & his heart was broken
got out somewhere all alone
BREAK
met a man - his soul he could not treason
met a man who would not wave that flag
got out & his hands were shakin'
got out somewhere down the road
gonna be . . . all his life
livin' . . . on mountain time
gonna be . . all right
livin' . . on mountain time
