Here's how I play it (though I'm going by memory, as I don't have my guitar
with me at the moment):


INTRO:

F F#aug C9-B9-C9


VERSE:

F ("On a mountain...lonesome")

C7 ("pine...below")

F ("is the")

D7 ("cabin home")

G7 ("of that little")

C7 ("girl of mine. Her...")

F ("name is June....soon")

?? ("she'll belong to me") [I'll have to work this out...there are a couple of
minors here, but I can't think of what they are]

F ("For I know she's waiting")

D7 ("there for me")

G7 ("neath that old pine")

C7-B7-C7 ("tree. In the...")


CHORUS:

F ("Blue Ridge")

D7 ("mountains of")

G7 ("Virginia, on the...")

C7 ("trail of the lonesome")

F ("pine") B9-C9

("In the...")

F ("pale moon...")

D7 ("...shine, our..")

G7 ("...hearts entwined...name and...")

C7 ("I carved mine, oh...")

F ("June, like the...")

F7 ("mountains I'm blue, like the...")

Bb ("pines, I am lonesome for...")

A7 ("you" [bonk!])


C7 ("In the...")

F ("Blue Ridge")

D7 ("Mountains of")

G7 ("Virginia, on the...")

C7 ("trail of the lonesome")

F ("Pi....iiiiiiine") [clunk]


I'll try to follow up later today with the missing chords and will also check
to see that I've got the ones here right.

attendance a GREAT music CD, SING ALONG WITH THE BOYS LAUREL & HARDY
including "Lonesome pine", one track with words and one track- just the
music.
22 tracks in all. Steve may have some of the CD still available, see

Am ("she'll be-")

E7 ("...long to...")

Am ("...me")

F ("For I know she's waiting there for me")

G7 ("'neath that old pine")

C7-B7-C7 ("tree.")


CHORUS:

C7 ("In the...")

F ("Blue Ridge")

D7 ("mountains of")

G7 ("Virginia, on the...")

C7 ("trail of the lonesome")

F ("pine") B9-C9

("In the...")

F ("pale moon...")

D7 ("...shine, our..")

G7 ("...hearts entwined...name and...")

C7 ("I carved mine, oh...")

F ("June, like the...")

F7 ("mountains I'm blue, like the...")

Bb ("pines, I am lonesome for...")

A7 ("you" [bonk!])


C7 ("In the...")

F ("Blue Ridge")

** 36 years playing guitar, and I still get my augmenteds and diminisheds mixed
up! Whatever the hell you call it, this is what I play for this chord...
