[Verse 1]
C                  F
     Climbing up a mountain

        G          C
Just to get to the top

C                  F
     Halfway up, I realized

        G          C
There's no turning back

    Bm    Am     G            F
And I was sad to see them all gone mad

            G
What did it matter?

F               G
     Who really cares?
[Verse 2]
C                F
     I was all I hoped for

       G                    C
Me and only me could see me through

C                   F
     You were all I realized

         G          C
You were all I ever knew

    Bm    Am     G
And I was sad to see

F                G
The emptiness of sorrow

    F             G
The loneliness of tomorrow
[Verse 3]
C                   F
     You could be a sweetheart

          G         C
You could be a lullaby

C                                F
     But you'll never make it to heaven

G                 C
Telling all those lies

    Bm    Am     G
And I was sad to see

    F          G
The light disappearing

    F           G
And nothing was there
[Verse 4]
C                   F
     You were all I lived for

          G                   C
Girl, you seemed to make much sense

C                    F
     But I'd sure to tell ya

          G      C
Would you ever repent?

    Bm    Am       G
And I was sad, somehow

    F     G
So, sorry for you

        F      G
And I'm so far from you
[Verse 5]
C                    F
     Now, the end is coming

  G                C
I fear it might offend

C                       F
     Have you heard the calling

       G              C
Or the falling of the rain?

     Bm       Am      G          F
And, now, I'm sad, so sad than before

             G
But, I still love you

F                     G
     And I'm thinking of you
[Outro] C F G C C F G C Bm Am G F G F G C F G C C F G C Bm Am G F G F G
