intro: D5  G5  D5  G5

  D5          G5          D5            G5
Deep in the shade, the air stays cool
    B5              A5       D5
Truest one, and I return to you
  D5         G5      D5              G5
Strike the fire,  hold back the night
  B5         A5      E5               G5
See what remains of all I've left behind
      G5                 D5             G5
I've just come for what peace I could find

CHORUS:

      D5                    B5               A5
And the mountains gonna sing this song for me
        C5                        G5                 D5
Whoa oh oh, the mountains gonna sing this song for me
  C5             D5          G5        D5      G5
Rock me off to sleep


D5          G5       D5           G5
All the stories that she did tell
    B5                    A5                  D5
There in a stillness, I learned her lesson well
D5         G5           D5       G5
In words forgotten, forever pure
   B5               A5             D5
Names unspoken and gone forever more
        G5            D5                G5
And I have nothing left to lay upon her door

-Chorus-

D5               G5       D5         G5
Beneath the laurels, pearls of rain
   B5              A5               D5
Fall and shatter, and sink into the clay
D5                 G5      D5               G5
Wash away these hills, wash away the dawn
   B5                 A5                    D5
Somehow there's still the strength to carry on
      G5            D5           G5
The spirit ever lingers in a song

-Chorus-
