The ToneWay® Project: helping people play music

She'll Be Comin' 'Round the Mountain [core]

She'll be comin' 'round the mountain when she comes
She'll be comin' 'round the mountain when she 5 comes
She'll be 1 comin' 'round the mountain, She'll be 4 comin' 'round the mountain
She'll be 1 comin' 'round the 5 mountain when she 1 comes

She'll be drivin' six white horses when she comes,...

Oh, we'll all go out to meet her when she comes,...

We'll kill the old red rooster when she comes,...

We'll all have chicken and dumplings when she comes,...

We'll be singing "Hallelujah" when she comes,...

It’s on Strum Machine!
