Johnny Cash - The Road to Kaintuck: chords

Chorus:
 G
We're goin' west to Kaintuck down
the road to Moccasin Gap
                     C
Down the wilderness road
          G           C           G
Down the Dug Road the old Reedy Creek Road
     C             G
The road down to Troublesome
     D                     G
The road through Moccasin Gap

There was a time when going way out
west meant going to Kaintuck
The dark and bloody ground as Indians called it
Indians wars were ragin' and men
like Daniel Boone and Michael Stoner
Came down the wilderness road like
countless families did
Through a place in south West
Virginia called Big Moccasin Gap
It's a hot day in '73 and this
is my wife and my kids with me
Daniel Boone lost his boy the
other day young Jim Boone is
dead twenty miles away
The wagons turn and went back home
even Daniel couldn't make it alone
I guess probably Daniel could but
he stopped awhile in castle wood

A
Well if you love your wife and love your baby man
            D
You better turn that wagon back as soon as you can
      A
Ev'ry Injun in them hills has gone berserk
                        E              A
And you're never gonna make it to Kaintuck

Chorus:
 G
We're goin' west to Kaintuck down
the road to Moccasin Gap
                     C
Down the wilderness road
     G           C           G
The Dug Road the old Reedy Creek Road
     C              G
The road down to Troublesome
     D                     G
The road through Moccasin Gap

                 C           G
The Dug Road the old Reedy Creek Road
     C             G
The road down to Troublesome
     D                     G
The road through Moccasin Gap
