[Verse 1]
C
One evening as the sun went down
G C
And the jungle fire was burning,
C
Down the track came a hobo hiking,
G C
And he said, "Boys, I'm not turning
F/C C F/C C
I'm headed for a land that's far away
F/C C G
Besides the crystal fountains
C
So come with me, we'll go and see
G C
The Big Rock Candy Mountains
C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains,
F/C C
There's a land that's fair and bright,
F/C C
Where the handouts grow on bushes
F/C G
And you sleep out every night
C
Where the boxcars all are empty
F/C C
And the sun shines every day
F/C C
On the birds and the bees
F/C C
And the cigarette trees
F/C C
The lemonade springs
F/C C
Where the bluebird sings
G C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

[Verse 2]
C
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
F/C C
All the cops have wooden legs
F/C C
And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth
F/C G
And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs
C
The farmers' trees are full of fruit
F/C C
And the barns are full of hay
F/C C
Oh I'm bound to go
F/C C
Where there ain't no snow
F/C C
Where the rain don't fall
