[Verse]
Bm
One morning, one morning,
G A
One morning in May,
Bm
I overheard a married man
G A
to a young girl say:
Bm
"Go dress you up pretty Katie,
G A
come along with me,
Bm
across the blue mountains
G A
to the Allegheny.
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
Bm
I'll buy you a horse love
G A
and a saddle to ride,
Bm
I'll buy myself another
G A
to ride by your side."
[Refrain]
Bm G A
Da da da,
Bm G A
Da da da,
Bm G A Bm
Da da da da da.
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
Bm
We'll stop at every tavern,
G A
we'll drink when we're dry.
Bm
Across the blue mountains
G A
goes my Katie and I.
Bm
They left before daybreak
G A
on a dapple and a roan,
Bm
past tall shivering pines
G A
where the mockingbirds go.
Bm
Past dark cabin windows
G A
where eyes never see,
Bm
across the blue mountains
G A
to the Allegheny...
[Refrain]
Bm G A
Da da da,
Bm G A
Da da da,
Bm G A Bm
Da da da da da.
