 Over a hundred years ago we came to Carolina
                               D
 Far across the water, it's a long hard road
       G
 With little more than courage we came seeking independence
                                  D
 A little less than nothin' is a heavy load
           G
 From the heather to the highlands we have found the Smoky Mountains
                                D             A7
 Hard work and simple ways and life is good, life is good
