Mountains [C#m] in your savage [E] delight
run faster brave bear
[A] the builder [E] scales your eyes and
You hold [B] him worth millions now, [A] so there's nothing [E] he won't buy
Run faster brave bear
[A] The moon is [E] losing light
Hey, I'd love to run [B] those trails with you [A] scream your courage [E] in the night
