[Verse 1]
E
Well I wandered way back in the mountains
                                D E
I was searching for fortune and fame
                             A              E
I found where the water runs sweet from the hills
     A           E        A
They call it the medicine springs
     E           B7       E
They call it the medicine springs


[Verse 2]
E
It was there that I met a fair maiden
                            D E
Yellow hair and big eyes of blue
                        A          E
She told me one day she loved only me
     A        E       A
That she’d forever be true
     E        B7      E
That she’d forever be true

[Verse 3]
E
I wanted the best for my darlin’
                              D E
But my pockets were empty and bare
                              A           E
My love was so great for that starlett of mine
  A          E          A
I took what another man had
  E          B7         E
I took what another man had


[Verse 4]
E
As I sit here alone in this jailhouse
                             D E
With a letter I can't hardly read
                       A             E
It said my darlin’ has left this ol’ world
        A          E          A
She’s a waitin’ in heaven for me
E          B7         E
Waitin’ in heaven for me

[Outro]
E
Some day I’ll go back to the mountains
                                D E
Where I’ll spend the rest of my days
                                  A           E
And the water that runs frome the side of the hill
     A         E       A
Will water her flowery grave
     E         B7      E
Will water her flowery grave
