[D] [G]
[D] [G] [D] [G]
[D] [G]
[D] Come [G] down, come down from your [Bm] mountain [D] Jehovah, my neck is terribly sore.
[A] [D] Here chop [G] your [D] robes and [G] your raiment, [D]
Jehovah, climb down to the foot of [A] your [D] cliff,
And [Bm] drink [D] from the stream that was [G] always [D] beneath you, [G] drink from our [D] wonderful font,
[A] Cos [D] paradise [G] is right [Bm] here [G] on [D] earth, Jehovah, what more could [G] we possibly [D] want?
[G] [D]
Come down and talk amongst friends, Jehovah, come down [G] and sit [D] at your feet,
[A]
[D] Walk through [G] the [D] woods [G] and the [D] valleys, Jehovah, [G] sail upon [D] desolate [A] seas,
[D]
And [Bm] pass on what you've [D] learnt to [G] the children, [D] Jehovah, [G] and listen to what they have [D] to say,
[A] They say [D] paradise [G] is right here on earth, [D] Jehovah, not tomorrow, but right now, today.
Oh, and devil, [G] come up [D] from your fiery furnace, Come up and show us your [A]
face,
[D] There's nothing you [G] can [D] teach us [G] of [D] evil or hatred, That [G] we don't have right [D] here in [A] this place,
[D] There [Bm] is nothing [A] so [D] evil as man and [G] his [D] mischief, [G] There's nothing so lost [D] or insane,
[A] And bring [D] your demons [G] up too, so we'll know it's [D] not you, But [Gm] it's us who must [D] carry the [A] blame,
[Bm] Oh, it's us [D] who must live with the [G]
[D] shame,
[G] [D]
Come down, [G] come [D] down [G] from your mountain, [D] Jehovah, [G] Oh, come down and be with us [D] here,
[A] [D] Heaven [G] and hell and the life [D] ever after, [G] It's such a beguiling [A] idea,
[D] But our [Bm] spell on [A] this earth is [G] much richer, [D] Jehovah, [G] It's richer than we'll [D] ever know,
[A] [D] And when it [G] comes time to [D] leave it behind, We'll just [G] close our [D] eyes and let [A] go,
If [D]
[F#] we've [G] done our best, we'll be [D] ready for the rest, [G]
We'll just close our [D] eyes and let go.
[G] [A] [D]
