The Mountain
by Steven Curtis Chapman & Geoff Moore

I had been looking for this song Online for days when i finally found it
else where.  Since it wasn't hear at Harmony Central, I decided to copy
it down and send it here.  I hope you enjoy this.  I don't think it's
entirely accurate (I haven't had a chance to try it out yet) but it's a
start.  Have fun!


(Capo 3)   D  G/D   D   G/D   D   G/D   D   G/D


D               G/D           D           G/D
I wanna build a house upon this mountain

D               G/D            D                      G/D
Way up high where the peaceful waters flow

Gmaj7                   Em7
To quench my thirsty soul

            D           G/D   D   G/D
Upon the mountain


D               G/D     D               G/D
I can see for miles upon this mountain

       D                        G/D          D          G/D
And troubles seem so small they almost disappear

        D/F#        Em7
Lord, I love it here

                  D     G/D     D       G/D
Upon on the mountain

G                      D/F#     Em7
My faith is strengthened by all that I see

Bm7                      G  D/F#    Em7
You make it easy for me to believe

             D       G/D        D       G/D
Up on the mountain

                  D     G/D     D       G/D
Oh, up on the mountain


D               G/D      D              G/D
I would love to live upon this mountain

       D                        G/D     D               G/D
And keep the pain of living life so far away

G               D/F#    Em7
But, I know I can't stay

                D       G/D     D       G/D
Oh, up on the mountain

G               D/F#        Em7
I said I'd go, Lord, where ever You lead

Bm7                             G   D/F#   Em7
For where You are is where I most wanna be

            D   G/E                   D       G/B
And I can tell we're headed for the valley,  Yes we are


G                       D/F#  Em7
My faith is strengthened by all that I've seen

Bm7             A/B      Bm7    G            D/F#      Em7
So, Lord, help me remember what You've shown me

             D      G/E      D           G      A
Up on the mountain,           Yeah!


A               G               A       A2sus  A
You bring me up here on the mountain

D            G                  A       G       A       D
For me to rest and learn and grow

           G                A           A2sus   A
I see the truth up on the mountain

        Em7                 Bm      A   G       A       D
And I carry it to the world far below

           G               A    A2sus   A
So, as I go down to the valley

D                G             A                G       A       D
Knowin that You will go with me

             G                A         Bm          A   G  D/F#   Em7
This is my prayer Lord: Help me to remember what You've shown me

               D  Dsus4/E  D   Dsus4/B     D   Dsus4/E  D  G/B  G/A
Up on the mountain,           Up on the mountain


           G/D          D                 G/D
I cherish these times up on the mountain

D           G/D         D               G/D
But I can leave this place because I know

G                        D/F#   Em7
Someday You'll take me home

To live forever

                D  Dsus4/E   D  Dsus4/B  Dsus4/A
Upon the mountain


D          Dsus4/E  D  Dsus4/B  Dsus4/A


            D        G/D        D
Upon the mountain

G/D             D       G/D     D       G/D
Way up on the mountain

(repeat and fade)
