[C] I'm [Ab] standing [C] on a mountain, [Cm] [Am] looking out upon the land, thinking of all the fruit and goodness
that is [F] [Ab] given [Am] unto man.
I see [C] love all over the flowers, [Am] I hear a song [C] from the birds in the air,
and peace is all around me, [F] but there's no [Ab] peace for you [Am] and [F] me.
[Em] Though there ain't no trouble [Am]
on the mountain, [F] oh, and that's where [Em] I [Dm] wanna go,
[Am] but I just can't rest [Gb]
on the mountaintop [F] when there's [Gm] trouble [D] down [Am] here below.
You [Dm] [Am]
can taste [Dm] the honey from [Fm] the [Am] honeybee, [A] you can [Ab] sit in the [Am] shade of a shady tree,
there's no gift [C]
in the heart of [Gb] a man to make me fight [C] to be free.
