Banjo Tuned E, Capo 2 Key of D
Teardrops on Mt Sad
[Chorus]
D G D
Oh they are there, alright
A
Even those fought back during the night
D G D
But the tough wrenched out ones on Mt Sad
A7 D
Were the ones put there by my dad
D G D
He fought that old timber soil
E7 E7 A
Worked so hard, I thought his blood would boil
D G D
I can see his tan face and arms in his bib overalls
A7 D
And that pleasant, easy smile, most of all
G D
Yes my dad shed his share of tears
A
Told me to get an education, get out of here
D G D
And now I am back and he is gone
A7 D
I have these memories put to song
[Chorus]
D G D
I miss you Mom, Larry and Dad
A
And those good tough times we had
D G D
Living and growing up on Mt Sad
A7 D
Really, they were'nt that bad
