Capo 2
[Verse]
Am G
In the spring of 1856 with the snow still on the ground
D/F# Am G D/F# Am
Two little boys were lost in the mountains above the town
Am G
The father went out hunting the boys had stayed behind
D/F# Am G D/F# Am Em Am
While mother tended to her chores they wandered from her side
[Verse]
Am G
The two had gone to follow him and lost their way instead
D/F# Am G D/F# Am
By dusk the boys had not been found and fear had turned to dread
Am G
200 men had gathered there to comb the mountain side
D/F# Am G D/F# Am
The fires were built on the highest peak in hopes they'd see the light
[Chorus 1]
D Am
Oh mommy and daddy why can't you hear our cries
G Am
The day is almost over, soon it will be night
D Am Em
We're so cold and hungry and our feet are tired and sore
F G C Em Am Em Am
We promise not to stray again from our cabin door
[Verse]
Am G
Now Jacob Diverd woke one night from a strange and eerie dream
D/F# Am G D/F# Am
He saw a path between two hills near a dark and swollen stream
Am G
He told his wife he saw the boys huddled close beside a log
D/F# Am G D/F# Am
For two more nights the dream returned this vision sent from God
[Chorus 1]
D Am
Oh mommy and daddy why can't you hear our cries
G Am
The day is almost over, soon it will be night
D Am Em
We're so cold and hungry and our feet are tired and sore
F G C Em Am Em Am
We promise not to stray again from our cabin door
[Verse]
Am G
D thousand men had searched in vain the west side of pop's creek
D/F# Am G D/F# Am
But Jacob's wife knew of this place and said to travel east
Am G
With a guide to take him there, Jacob came upon the scene
D/F# Am G D/F# Am
And found the boys cold and still beneath the old birch tree
[Chorus 2]
D Am
Oh mommy and daddy, look past the tears you cry
G Am
We're both up in Heaven now, God is by our side
D Am Em
As you lay us down to rest in the presence of the Lord
F G C Em Am Em Am
Know that we will meet you here at Heaven's door
