This song was only ever preformed once before John Denver passed away. It is allegedly
one of the most difficult songs he ever wrote and he ended up making some of the lyrics
up on the spot (hence the repetitiveness on the last verses). I personally think its one
of his best and I hope others will appreciate this long forgotten song as much as I do.
Enter with C
[Verse 1]
G C
Let the mountains talk, let the river run

There's a wisdom here, there is much to learn
Am F G7 C
There's much to know, much to understand
G G7 C
In this healing time all across the land
[Verse 2]
G C
You have heard my songs, for so many years

You have laughed with me, washed away my tears
Am F G7 C
You have shared my joy, you have felt my pain
G G7 C
In this healing time, walk with me again
[Chorus 1]
Am F G7 C
Through these darker days on this narrow line
Am F G7 C
Help me find my way, help me see the signs
Am F G7 C
I am not afraid, I am not alone
G G7 C
You have taught me well, you have brought me home
[Verse 3]
G C
Let the mountain speak, let the rivers run
G C
As the world awakes to the rising sun
Am F G7 C
In each brand new day, in our own rebirth
G G7 C
In this healing time on our mother earth
[Chorus 2]
Am F G7 C
Let the mountains talk, let the rivers run
Am F G7 C
There is wisdom here, there's so much to learn
Am F G7 C
In each brand new day, in our own rebirth
G G7 C
In this healing time for our mother earth
[Outro]
Am F G7 C
In each brand new day, in our own rebirth
G G7 C
In this healing time, here on mother earth
