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
CHORUS:
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-
END
