[E]
[F#m]
She [B]
was [E] always walking, [F#] singing to [E] her footsteps, dirt ditch paths and pine cones, digging [F#m] up
glass bowls, rusty springs from feathers, old hook caps on the picket [A] fence, [Bm] she planted
[E] bed [F#m] flowers,
[Bm] stayed outside [F#m] for hours, [A] in [D] spirit [A] she's drifted [Bm] to
[A] [D] all [A] those [Bm]
[A] years, [D] she's watched
[A] the longest [Bm] fall, [A] but [D] this song
[A] is in [Bm] her [E] mind, [D] sunset by [A] the sea is in [Bm] her mind,
[F#m] and
she was always hoping to someday leave the mountain, [Bm] domestic [F#m] chores and gin, [Bm] the darkness
[F#m] of the winter, painting all these mermaids, wandering to the seashore, [Bm] she wanted [F#m] him to
follow, [Bm] but his heart is [F#m] with the hillside, [D] in spirit
[A] she's drifted to [Bm] the ocean, [D] all those years [A] of
waiting [Bm] for the water.
[A] [D] She's watching [A] the long shadows [Bm] go in the tide.
But [A] this [D] sunset [A] by the sea is in [Bm] her mind.
[A] [D]
[A] [Bm] These
[A] [F#m] days you'll find her walking, singing to the deep [Bm] sea.
But she will [F#m] always love [Bm] lost up [F#m] in the mountain.
The sunset on the ocean, gathering shells and beach, [Bm] glass and dancing [E] with [F#m] the rolling waves, [Bm] gives her [F#m] peace of mind.
[A] But [Bm] she will [B] always [A] love him [Bm] lost up in [F#m] the [A] mountain.
Oh, she [N] will always love him [C#] lost up in the mountain.
