The Mountain

Steven Curtis Chapman & Geoff Moore

(Capo 3)   D  G/D   D   G/D   D   G/D   D   G/D

D		G/D	      D		  G/D

I wanna build a house upon this mountain

D	        G/D	       D		      G/D

Way up high where the peaceful waters flow

Gmaj7			Em7

To quench my thirsty soul

	    D		G/D   D   G/D

Upon the mountain

D	        G/D	D		G/D

I can see for miles upon this mountain

       D			G/D	     D		G/D

And troubles seem so small they almost disappear

	D/F#	    Em7

Lord, I love it here

	          D	G/D	D	G/D

Upon on the mountain

G		       D/F#     Em7

My faith is strengthened by all that I see

Bm7		         G  D/F#    Em7

You make it easy for me to believe

	     D	     G/D	D  	G/D

Up on the mountain

	          D	G/D	D	G/D

Oh, up on the mountain

D		G/D	 D		G/D

I would love to live upon this mountain

       D		        G/D     D		G/D

And keep the pain of living life so far away

G	        D/F#    Em7

But, I know I can’t stay

		D	G/D	D	G/D

Oh, up on the mountain

G		D/F#        Em7

I said I’d go, Lord, where ever You lead

Bm7				G   D/F#   Em7

For where You are is where I most wanna be

	    D	G/E		      D	      G/B

And I can tell we’re headed for the valley,  Yes we are

G			D/F#  Em7

My faith is strengthened by all that I’ve seen

Bm7		A/B      Bm7    G            D/F#      Em7

So, Lord, help me remember what You’ve shown me

	     D      G/E      D           G	A

Up on the mountain,           Yeah!

A		G		A	A2sus  A

You bring me up here on the mountain

D	     G			A	G	A	D

For me to rest and learn and grow

	   G		    A		A2sus   A

I see the truth up on the mountain

	Em7		    Bm      A	G	A	D

And I carry it to the world far below

	   G		   A	A2sus   A

So, as I go down to the valley

D		 G	       A		G	A	D

Knowin that You will go with me

	     G		      A		Bm	    A	G  D/F#   Em7

This is my prayer Lord: Help me to remember what You’ve shown me

	       D  Dsus/E  D   Dsus/B	 D   Dsus/E  D  G/B  G/A

Up on the mountain,           Up on the mountain

	   G/D		D		  G/D

I cherish these times up on the mountain

D	    G/D		D		G/D

But I can leave this place because I know

G		         D/F#	Em7

Someday You’ll take me home

To live forever

	        D  Dsus/E   D  Dsus/B  Dsus/A

Upon the mountain

D          Dsus/E  D  Dsus/B  Dsus/A

	    D	     G/D	D

Upon the mountain

G/D		D	G/D	D	G/D

Way up on the mountain
