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