Judy Collins - The Coming Of The Roads
CAPO: 1st Fret
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
D Em C
Now that our mountain is growing
D G
With people hungry for wealth
D Em A7
How come it's you that's a-going__
C D G
And I'm left alone by myself?
[Verse 2]
D Em C
We used to hunt the cool caverns
D G
Deep in our forest of green
D Em A7
Then came the road and the tavern__
C D G
And you found a new love it seems
[Chorus]
A D Bm C
Once I had you and the wildwood
D G
Now, it's just dusty roads
D C A
And I can't help from blaming your going
C D C G
On the coming, the coming of the roads
[Verse 3]
D Em C
Look how they've cut all to pieces
D G
Our ancient poplar and oak
D Em A7
And the hillsides are stained with the greases
C D G
That burned up the heavens with smoke
[Verse 4]
D Em C
You used to curse the bold crewmen
D G
Who stripped our earth of its ore
D Em A7
Now you've changed and you've gone over to them
C D G
And you've learned to love what you hated before
[Chorus]
A D Bm C
Once I thanked god for my treasure
D G
Now like rust, it corrodes
D C A
And I can't help from blaming your going
C D C G
On the coming, the coming of the roads
