CAPO: 5th Fret
INTRO: C G F C (4x)
CHORUS:
I went up to the mountain
And I Fcame back a wiseC woman F
Went to the Criver, Fcame back wiserG still C
Only to see, you're as Fdear to me as the Cair I breathe F
Won't you Cmeet me at that Fmansion Gon the Chill
Stuffed your mattress and Gwove your Fsheets
Patched your blanket, piece by Cpiece
If the Flord had granted me a Cchoice, I'd a Fheld up my Ghand
We Cground the corn, moulded Glard and Flye
Had ten children and Cwatched four die F
I'll stand beCside you when you meet the Gpromised Cland
CHORUS:
Because I went up to the mountain
And I Fcame back a wiseC woman F
Went to the Criver, Fcame back wiserG still C
Only to see, you're as Fdear to me as the Cair I breathe F
Won't you Cmeet me at that Fmansion Gon the Chill
INSTRUMENTAL: F C F C F G C F C F C F G C
Danced to the fiddle on a GSaturday Fnight
And chopped the cotton beCfore daylight F
The sun don't go Cdown on a Fpoor man's woGes
But my Clove, if you don't Gmeet the Fdawn
I promise you, I'll Ccarry on F
Singing, 'Precious CMemories', as I plant aGlong the Crows
CHORUS:
Because I went up to the mountain
And I Fcame back a wiseC woman F
Went to the Criver, Fcame back wiserG still C
Only to see, you're as Fdear to me as the Cair I breathe F
Won't you Cmeet me at that Fmansion Gon the Chill
Won't you meet me at the Fmansion on the hCill
Won't you meet me at the Fmansion on the hCill
