[C] [F]
There was a time when I flew higher
Was a time [C] the wild girl running free
Would be me
[F] Now I see her feel the fire
Now I know she needs me there [C] to share
[D] [C] I'm nowhere
All these [Dm] blank and [C] [G] tranquil [A] [G] years
Seems [Dm] they've dried up [C] all [G] my [Am] [G] tears
[D] And while she [G] runs free and fast
Seems my [Dm] wild [C] days are [F] past
[Cm] But I [G] miss [Gm] the mountains
[F] [C] I [G] miss [Gm] the dizzy [F] heights
[C] All the manic magic days
And the [Gm] dark depressing [F]
nights
[C] I miss [Gm] the [F] mountains
[C] I miss the highs and [F] lows
[C] All the climbing, all the falling
All the while [Bb] the wild [F] wind blows
[C] Stinging you [Dm] with snow
And soaking you [Am] with [G] [Bb] rain
I miss [F] the mountains
I [C] miss the [G] pain
[Gm] [C] [Ab]
Mountains [Eb] make you crazy
[Ab] Here it's safe [Gm] and sound
[Ab] My mind is [Eb] somewhere hazy
[Bb] My feet are on the [Dm] ground
Everything [Am] is balanced [Dm] here
And on an [Am] even keel
[Dm]
Everything [G] is [Am] perfect
[Bb] Nothing's real
[G] Nothing's real Nothing's real
[D] [A] [Am] Nothing's real Okay
[G]
[D] I [A] [D] miss the lonely [G]
[D] climb
Wandering [A] [Am] through [C] the land
Spending [G] all my time
[D] Where the [Em] air is clear
And [Bm] cuts you like a [A] [C] knife
I [G] miss the mountains
I miss the pain
[C] I miss the [G] mountains
I miss the mountains [D] life
[G] I miss my
[D] life
[N]
