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
G7M                  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  Dsus/E  D   Dsus/B       D   Dsus/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  Dsus/E   D  Dsus/B  Dsus/A
Upon the mountain


D          Dsus/E  D  Dsus/B  Dsus/A

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