[F#]
[B] [F#]
I went up to the mountain because [C#] you asked me to.
Up [D#m] over the clouds where the sky [B] was blue.
See all [F#] around me, everywhere, [C#] everywhere.
I can see all [D#] around [D#m] me,
[B] everywhere,
[F#] everywhere.
Sometimes I feel like I've never been nothing [C#] but tired.
And I'll be [D#m] working, working, till the day [B] I expire.
[F#] Sometimes I lay down, no more can I [C#] do.
Then I go [D#m] on, on [B] again, because [F#] you asked me to.
Some days I [B] look down, and I'm afraid [F#] I'll fall.
And though the sun [G#m] shines, I see nothing [C#] at all.
Then I hear [B] your sweet voice, oh, come [D#m] and then go.
Just tellin' [F#] me somethin', you [C#] love me so.
The peaceful valley, [F#]
just over [C#] the mountain.
The [D#m] peaceful valley,
[F#]
you [B] come to know.
[F#] I may never get there, ever, in [C#] this lifetime.
Sooner or [D#m] later,
[B] it's there I will [D#m] go.
[B]
Sooner [F#] or later,
[C#] it's there I [D#m] will go.
