We started out from Bern [Bm] when sunny August morned
There [G] was just the four of us against the [D] Matterhorn
There
[Bm] was Albert the [D] Australian and John the Irishman

Two miles up we lost [Bm] John and the rations fell below
Out
[G] howling till the wading with an [D] avalanche of snow
Now here I am all [Bm] alone and I know I cannot stop
[G] Two more yards in front of me before I [D] reach the top

Now here I am a dying [Bm] among the Matterhorn
Not [G] a grape for me to lie in or a thing to keep [D] me warm

But [G] it's closer here to heaven than it is back to [D] the ground
