Streets Of Gold(Chords)

	        C                              F       C     G7           C 
I'm a western North Carolinian made of stone and red clay soil 

                                  F          C    G7          C 
Got Cherokee blood deep within me when I was born it began to boil 

          G7              C                                      G7 
I left my home across the mountains to see what kind of life I'd find 

             C                       F         C    G7            C 
Searched the world in all directions to try to cool this restless mind 


                                   F              C    G7         C 
Found myself on a lonesome journey the streets of gold I tried to find 
                                     
The Indian spirit softly whispered  

F              C        G7           C 
And cooled the blood of the restless mind 

          G7                 C 
I'm going back to the Smokey Mountains  

                                G7 
And breathe the air that fed my soul 

             C 
I?ll bury me deep in the leaves of history  

    F          C       G7         C 
And there I'll find my streets of gold 


                               F       C     G7           C 
I'm a western North Carolinian made of stone and red clay soil 

                                  F          C    G7          C 
Got Cherokee blood deep within me when I was born it began to boil
