Bb        Ebmaj7     Bb  Ebmaj7
Save me a mountain to climb
Bb        Ebmaj7   Bb  Ebmaj7
Save me a river to cross
   Cm(7)                     F
At midnight the sound of the stockyard trains
Cm                       F
Wail in the distance and rattle my chains
Bb        Ebmaj7          Bb         Ebmaj7
Save me a valley like the one in the distance
Bb        Ebmaj7    Bb           Ebmaj7
Save me a canyon to swallow this jail
        Cm                         F
I wanna stand outside and feel the rain when it falls
            Cm               F
Breathe the air on the other side of these walls
Bb      Ebmaj7      Bb  Ebmaj7
Save a mountain for me
Bb      Ebmaj7      Bb  Ebmaj7
Save a mountain for me
   Cm                           Bb
It sounds like a choir when the chaingangs shout
Cm                     F
Save me a mountain for when I get out
Bb        Ebmaj7       Bb         Ebmaj7
Save me a desert, just me and the sand
Bb        Ebmaj7 Bb  Ebmaj7
Save me a sea to sail
      Cm                   F
In my heart I know I'm too weak to be strong
          Cm                   F
I've been wasting away in this jail for too long
Bb      Ebmaj7      Bb  Ebmaj7    
Save a mountain for me
Bb      Ebmaj7      Bb  Ebmaj7
Save a mountain for me
            Cm                              Bb
It's like a choir of fallen angels when the chaingangs shout
Cm                     F             Ab    Bb
Save me a mountain for when I get o-u-t

Db            Eb
"Has the jury reached a verdict?"
Ab    Bb                      Eb
      "We have your honour."

       "How does the jury find?"

Db                          Eb
       "Do the defendants have anything to say on their behalf,
Ab                 Bb                          Eb (builds)
        Before the court pronounces sentence?"
Bb        Ebmaj7      Bb  Ebmaj7
Save me a mountain to climb
Bb        Ebmaj7   Bb  Ebmaj7
Save me a river to cross
   Cm                        F
At midnight the sound of the stockyard trains
      Cm                       F
Still wail in the distance and rattle my brains
Bb        Ebmaj7          Bb         Ebmaj7
Save me a valley like the one in the distance
Bb        Ebmaj7     Bb          Ebmaj7
Save me a canyon to swallow this jail
   Cm                         F
If only I could tie all these dreams together
        Cm                             F
I could break out of the big house and run forever
Bb     Ebmaj7      Bb  Ebmaj7
Save a mountain for me
   Bb     Ebmaj7       Bb  Ebmaj7
Oh save a mountain for me
            Cm                              Bb
It's like a choir of fallen angels when the chaingangs shout
Cm                     F
Save me a mountain for when I get out
Bb     Ebmaj7       Bb Ebmaj7
Save a mountain for me        Save it, save it
Bb     Ebmaj7       Bb Ebmaj7
Save a mountain for me
   Cm                           Bb
It sounds like a choir when the chaingangs shout
Cm        F            [Bb   Ebmaj7] repeat to fade
