Cab Calloway
the Old Man Of The Montain

Song :
D

Intro :
Gm      Gm   Dm   D    D7   Gm

         Gm
With his long white beard and a crooked staff
 
He tramps along while the folks all laugh
       Dm                     D
With a twinkle in his eye, he passes them by
    D7             Gm
The Old Man of the Mountain
 
   Gm
He wears long hair and his feet are bare
 
They say he's mad as an old march hare
        Dm                 D
But his cares are none, he owes no one
    D7             Gm
The Old Man of the Mountain
 
   Gm                             Cm
He talks with the birds when he's lonely
   Gm                          Cm
He sleeps with the stars for a tent
    F7                            A#
The bees spread a feast when he's hungry
    A#7            D
And God charges no rent
 
      Gm
He'll live as long as an old oak tree
 
And laugh at fools like you and me
      Dm             D
Oh, I often sigh and wish that I
         D7             Gm
Were the Old Man of the Mountain
