Julie Miller - Face Of Appalachia

Capo 4


Intro:
G

Verse 1:
G                       Em
Being born in blocks of buildings
       F  C        G
With a subway lullaby
G                 Em
When I dreamed of Appalachia
       F      C           G
It was dreams that had to die
     Em                     G
Coal trains wailing, banjos frailing
         Em         G
Sounds escaping the night
        F   C       G
Oh, the face of Appalachia
                  F    C              G
Was there in that cold grey apartment light
        F    C               G
In that cold grey apartment light

Verse 2:
G                         Em
Oh, I would fashion, I'd imagine
          F     C      G
Somewhere steep with a waterfall
G                    Em
Wild birds sing to a five string
         F     C                  G
Bouncing music off the mountain's walls
     Em                     G
Coal trains wailing, banjos frailing
         Em                 G
Sounds escaping through the door
       F    C      G
Oh the face of Appalachia
        F         C          G
She was changing, that's for sure
        F         C          G
She was changing, that's for sure

Instrumental:
Em    G    Em    G    F  C  G    F  C  G

Verse 3:
G                       Em
Grandpa made me quite a promise
        F   C         G
For the day I came of age
G                             Em
He said he'd walk through Appalachia
         F       C     G
Northern Georgia up to Maine
         Em          G
Dreadful sorry, my beloved
       Em                   G
Such a promise he could not keep
       F      C      G
All my dreams of Appalachia
             F   C     G
Were just an old man's memory
             F   C     G
Were just an old man's memory
