Gillis Mountain The Rankin Family
Notes: I am not 100 percent sure of the Em/B in the third line.
I am sure of the B bass note, and the chord sounds alright,
But I would be willing to try other chords anyone cares to suggest.
[G]I took a trip up Gillis Mountain
[Em]On a sunny [C]summer [D]day
There were [C]ruts in the [Em/B]road and the [Am]four wheel [D]drive
[Em]Spun itís wheels in the[C] rocks and the[D] clay
Yes it [Em]spun itís[C] wheels in the[D] rocks and the[G] clay.
On our way up Gillis Mountain
On that sunny summer day
There were spruce trees growing on the fields
Where fore-fathers once made hay
Where our fore-fathers once made hay.
Chorus:
-------
And [C]oh - oh - [D]oh [G]Gillis [C]Mountain
[C]Oh - oh - [D]oh [Em]Where fore-[C]fathers [D]once made [G]hay.
The Gillisí lived on the mountain
For about a hundred years
Where we pick berries they cleared land
Spent their blood and sweat and tears
They spent their blood and sweat and tears.
Chorus:
-------
And [C]oh - oh - [D]oh [G]Gillis [C]Mountain
