The Coming Of The Roads Chords & Lyrics - Judy Collins

CAPO: 1st Fret

[INTRO]
[G]

[VERSE 1]
Now that our [D]mountain is [Em]growing [C]
With people [D]hungry for [G]wealth
How come it's [D]you that's a-[Em]goin[A7]g__
And [C]I'm left alone by [D]myself? [G]

[VERSE 2]
We used to [D]hunt the cool [Em]caverns [C]
Deep in our [D]forest of [G]green
Then came the [D]road and the [Em]tave[A7]rn__
And [C]you found a new love it [D]seems [G]

[CHORUS]
Once I[A] had you and the [D]wild[Bm]wood [C]
Now, it's [D]just dusty [G]roads
And I can't help from [D]blaming your [C]goi[A]ng
On the [C]coming, the [D]coming [C]of the [G]roads

[VERSE 3]
Look how they've [D]cut all to [Em]pieces [C]
Our ancient [D]poplar and [G]oak
And the hillsides are [D]stained with the [Em]grea[A7]ses
That [C]burned up the heavens with [D]smoke [G]

[VERSE 4]
You used to [D]curse the bold [Em]crewmen [C]
Who stripped our [D]earth of its [G]ore
Now you've changed and you've [D]gone over [Em]to [A7]them
[C]And you've learned to love what you hated be[D]fore [G]

[CHORUS]
Once I [A]thanked god for my [D]trea[Bm]sure [C]
Now like [D]rust, it cor[G]rodes
And I can't help from [D]blaming your [C]goi[A]ng
On the [C]coming, the [D]coming [C]of the [G]roads
