The Mountains Gonna Sing

intro: D G D G D G D G Deep in the shade, the air stays cool Bm A D Truest one, and I return to you D G D G Strike the fire, hold back the night Bm A Em G See what remains of all I've left behind G D G I've just come for what peace I could find D Bm A And the mountains gonna sing this song for me C G D Whoa oh oh, the mountains gonna sing this song for me C D G D G Rock me off to sleep D G D G All the stories that she did tell Bm A D There in a stillness, I learned her lesson well D G D G In words forgotten, forever pure Bm A D Names unspoken and gone forever more G D G And I have nothing left to lay upon her door -Chorus- D G D G Beneath the laurels, pearls of rain Bm A D Fall and shatter, and sink into the clay D G D G Wash away these hills, wash away the dawn Bm A D Somehow there's still the strength to carry on G D G The spirit ever lingers in a song -Chorus-
