Cat Stevens (Yusuf Islam) – Olive Hill (Guitar)

C
Once upon a lighting horse

                   F
Riding through the universe

         C            Dm       Am
Shedding light upon a thousand doors

Bb
Time stood still

Dm     C
On the olive hill

C
On his back the prophet sat

              F
Open-eyed not looking back

          C                  Dm Am
'Til they reached the sacred land

Bb
Time stood still

G      F     C
On the olive hill

C
There upon a golden square

                 F
All the prophets joined in prayer

        C                 Dm   Am
And the stars fell silent everywhere

Bb
Time stood still

G      F     C
On the olive hill

Bb
Then the heavenly ascent

C
Past the place where no soul went

Bb                Dm       Am
This one soul was welcomed in

Bb
Time stood still

G      F     C
On the olive hill

C
Then the tale began to spread

                    F
Some would say he's lost his head

        C         Dm  Am
But for those who trusted

Bb
Light would spill

 G         F     C
Around the olive hill
