Roy Lee

   E             A            E
He was a simple man from the mountains,
                  B7           E
Those hills put a song in his heart
                           A                   E
And how the miles can take you from wherever you are
          A              B7       E
And how he felt when he held his guitar

               A            E
He turned the heads of the ladies,
              A                    E                             
Wound up in jail from the men that he'd fight
         A                                       E
Had to wash down his suffering with white pills and whiskey
                A         B7      E
Cause he was restless and tortured, inside

Chorus:
   E                A         E
Now he's crossed his last lonesome river,
                         B7              E
Knowing strangers, and stonewalls are still far
                       A                        E
Now he is back in the mountains were I hope he finds peace
                 A          E
God Bless him, rest him, Roy Lee
Instrumental:

    E             A           E
Some said he was mean and cold-hearted
                      B7       E
Some said a victim of life's circumstance
                 A                          E
Oh, but we all agree, he was a man from the mountains
                A          E
Only he and his God understands

Chorus:

tag:
                      A                           E
Now he's back on the mountain where I hope he finds peace
                 A              E
God Bless him, and  rest him, Roy Lee
