   Really, I'm not trying to be a mind reader, but here's another old Osborne   
   standard that often stymies beginners.   
      
   Rocky Top   
      
   G                      C        G   
      
   Wish that I was on old Rocky Top,   
      
   Em               D             G   
      
   Down in the Tennessee hills.   
      
    G                       C            G   
      
   Ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky Top   
      
   Em         D             G   
      
   Ain't no telephone bills.   
      
   G                  C        G   
      
   Once I had a girl on Rocky Top   
      
   Em                 D            G   
      
   Half bear, the other half cat,   
      
    G                          C           G   
      
   Wild as a mink but sweet as soda pop,   
      
   Em    D                G   
      
   I still dream about that.   
      
      
      
   Em                        D   
      
   Rocky Top, you'll always be,   
      
   F                              C   
      
   Home sweet home to me;   
      
    C            G   
      
   Good old Rocky Top,   
      
    G               F             G                  F          G   
      
   Rocky Top Tennessee; Rocky Top Tennessee   
      
   You can fill in the balance of the verses.
