Me and my babe we're getting married soon
C F C
Down by the river by the seventh of June
C F C

C F C
An appalachia on the run
[Verse]
C F C
I'm from the city and she thinks it's a pity
C F C
cause my hands aren't rough like a wagon wheel
C F C
I'm pulling up water that should be clear
C F C
oh maybe oh maybe in another year
[Chorus]
F C G Am
I'm from the city and she thinks I'm a pity
F C G
Where's my appalachia gone
F C G Am
for most of my life I've been wasting all my time
C F C (3X)

I'm mining away and I'm digging holes

F C G Am
I'm from the city and she thinks I'm a pity

But now I'm coming back to you

Appalachia in the morning I'll rise and I'll come around

C F C
And come back to you
