[A] [B]
[F#]
[C#m]
[E] [F#]
Up on this hillside, you can see the cross shine.
Out in the alley, hear the hungry dog whine.
[A] You [B] and I, friends, sit waiting [A] for a [F#] sign.
[C#] See how the sunset [E] makes the lake look like [F#] wine.
Over the mountain, I can hear myself call.
I want to come running, but my window's too [A] small.
The cliff's [B] so high, [F#] and I might fall.
[C#] What were you saying?
[E] Oh, it's nothing [F#] at all.
Yes, the world's in compulsion, but the weather is fine.
Hewicks gets bigger, and five cents costs a dime.
[A] I must get [B] going.
You know there's not [F#] much time.
[C#] The road is waiting, [E] and I'm running out [F#] of rhyme.
[C#] Up on the hillside, [E] see how the cross shines.
