[Bb]
[F] [Bb]
[F] I head up on a mountain [Gm] just in back of town.
[Bb] And I thought [Dm] that you were coming up, [Eb] but I can see you won't meet [Bb] us back down.
[Dm] Well, if you do, you [G] got a [C] surprise, [Gm] because I can never [F] back down in your [Bb] eyes.
We can surely [Dm] be best friends, it [D] doesn't have to [G] end.
[C]
[Dm]
[F] Now we were so unhappy, [Gm] and afraid to be apart.
[Bb] Yeah, but now [Dm] I guess we're growing up, [Eb] and I can feel a big jump in [Bb] my heart.
[Dm] And if we don't [G] want this dance to repeat, [Bb] we gotta make [F] up a brand new [Bb] sheet.
When you hear me singing this song, [D] you know it won't be [G] long.
No, [C] it [Gm] won't be [F] long.
[Bb] And [F] someday, [Am] when the sun is [C] shining, and the moon [F] will shine,
and the [Bb] wind will blow,
[Am] we'll still [Dm] go [Gm] on.
Well, we might [F] return there, and [Eb] before [Dm] we get [C] too old.
Before we get too old.
[F] [Bb]
[G] But [C]
[F] I'll stay here on my mountain, [Gm] and I won't let the moon.
[Bb] And be thankful [Dm] for the way things are, [Eb] I just hope it all [Bb] changes soon.
[Dm] But nothing ever [G] stays the [Bb] same, and if it did, [F] it'd be a damn [Bb] shame.
So I'll keep on [Dm] singing the same [Gm] old [F] song.
[G]
[F] It's the same old song.
It's the [C] same old [G] song.
[Bb] It's the same [F] old song.
[Bb] It's the same [G] old song.
It's the same old song.
[F] It's the [Bb] same old song.
[G] And [Bb] it won't be long.
And it won't [Bb] be long.
[G] [C] It's the same [F] old song.
[Bb] It's the same [G] old song.
[Gm] It's the same old song.
[F] [Bb] [G]
