O Brother Where Art Thou - Big Candy Rock Mountain

[Verse 1]
C      C 
  One evening as the sun went down
And the jungle fires were burning,
Down the track came a hobo hiking,
And he said, 'Boys, I'm not turning
    F            C           F       C
I'm headed for a land that's far away
  F                G7
Beside the crystal fountains
   C
So come with me, we'll go and see
The Big Rock Candy Mountains.

[Verse 2]
       C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
          F/A                  C
There's a land that's fair and bright
          F                C
Where the handouts grow on bushes
                        G7
And you sleep out every night
          C
Where the boxcars all are empty
        F                  C
And the sun shines everyday
        F             C
All the birds and the bees
        F         C
And the cigarette trees
    F        C
The lemonade springs
          F        C
Where the bluebird sings
       G7             C

        F/A              C
All the cops have wooden legs
        F                 C
And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth
                            G7
And the hens lay softboiled eggs
    C
The farmers' trees are full of fruit
        F                    C
And the barns are full of hay
        F          C
Oh, I'm bound to go
            F        C
Where there ain't no snow
          F          C
Where the rain don't fall
    F          C
The wind don't blow

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
    F/A               C
You never change your socks
        F                 C
And the little streams of alcohol
                        G7
Come trickling down the rocks
    C
The brakemen have to tip their hats
        F                  C
And the railroad bulls are blind
          F       C           F
There's a lake of stew And of whiskey too
C
        F           C               F
You can paddle all around them In a big canoe

The jails   are made of tin
    F/A                C
And you can walk right out again
                   G7
As soon as you are in
      C
There ain't no shorthandled shovels
   F/A            C
No axes, saws, or picks
    F            C          F
I'm going to stay Where you sleep all day
C
           F            C       F
Where they hung the Turk That invented work
