Mountains(Chords)

	        
             C 
I was just a boy 
                   Am 
My father seemed a mountain then 
       C                          F 
With a voice that could shake the seas 
            C                     Am 
My mother's ghost hung across his shoulders 
       E                                F 
And he said she was still watching over me 


               C 
My brother was home 
                 Am 
Just returned on army leave 
         C                      F 
Told his stories with a distant stare 
          C 
And as it snowed 
                     Am 
The wind was howling through the trees 
      E                   F                C 
And I spent my night just listening by the fire 

C  Am  Em  F  C  Am  E  F  E  Em  E  Em 

   Em                             F 
My hands move the creases from my brow 
          C 
Soft as a breath 
            G 
It's like a feather 
  Em                             F 
I dreamed of a lonely voice that night 
         C 
Quiet as death 
           G 
Outside my window 
          Em             F 
It sang a sad and lovely tune 
           C 
Clear as a bell 
          G 
Soft as a shiver 
         Em                 F 
It said  I want you all the time 
   Fm                       C 
It said  I want you all the time 

C  Em  C  Em  C  Em  C  Em 

            C              Em 
Goodbye bad thoughts 
                 C         Em 
I'm safe under covers  
               C           Em 
So goodbye bad thoughts 
                      C    Em 
'Cause I'm safe under covers 
                  C 
Now I can see you again
