_ _ [B] _ _ [E] _ _ _
When you were [A] a young girl and you had a raggedy dog
The only dog [E] you ever owned _ _
You can treat me [A] the way you used to treat that raggedy dog
But hurry up cause [E] I'm getting old
_ [B] _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] And it's getting stronger baby, [E] let me say
And [B] it goes deeper baby, [E] than you'll ever know
Like _ [B]
baby, watch [E] my love grow
[D] Do _ I love you my oh my
_ _ [E]
From a deep mountain high
_ _ _ [D]
If I lost you would I cry
_ _ [E]
So like _ _ _ _ baby, _ baby, _ baby _ _
When _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
you were a young [A] girl and you had a raggedy dog _
I always followed you [E] around
You _ can treat me [A] the way you used to treat that dog baby
I swear I'll never [E] put you down
And I [B] get painful baby, in [E] every way
And [B] it gets less painful baby, [E] let me say
And [B] I'm full of love, [E] but not in vain
_ [B] Look out baby, my love is [E] coming your way
And _ [D]
do I love you my oh my

From a deep mountain high

[Em] I love you baby like a little Franklin [E] needs to sing
[A] And I love you baby like a [Am] schoolboy loves his tie
[E] And I love you baby from a deep mountain high
Come on take it higher, take it higher, _ _ take it higher
Put your hands up in the air _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ This is so epic
Get up

_ In eternity, you shall [Em] _ have to see [E] the eternal.
