C/G F C/G Gadd4 While my father built a mansion on the mountain Am F G My Teresa dragged a rag across my brow C/G F She said, "the weather's never fair, the wind can only blow your hair" Am F G And I believed her well enough or didn't care

[Verse 3]
C/G F C/G Gadd4 While my father built a mansion on the mountain Am F G My Teresa threw me kisses through the cold C/G F We read the writing on the wall, braced each other for the fall Am F G There's only one way or the mountain after all
[Verse 4]
C/G F C/G Gadd4 While my father built a mansion on the mountain Am F G It was me and my Teresa against the world C/G F We took all the river had to give, broke a bed and bought a crib Am F G But left the mountain mansion, nothing to forgive
