[INTRO] C G A7 C G [VERSE 1]
  G                   D
I climbed the Redwood Hill

      Em         B7
'Twas on a rainy day

   C              G
To rise above the throng

    A7                            D7
And talk with Mother Nature for a while
[VERSE 2]
    G              D
She told me of her love

        Em              B7
For the children in her trust

    C               G
And of her grave concern

        A7       C              G
For the likes of you and me and us
[CHORUS]
Em
Crying though she was

        G
She did speak these tender words

     C             Am    C
"The things that I am

                           D
I could not change for any man"
[VERSE 3]
  G                D
I tried to comfort her

        Em               B7
Ah, but she would not be still

    C                G
And how the rain did fall

     A7                C                G
As I found my way back down the Redwood Hill
[INSTRUMENTAL] G D Em B7 C G A7 C G [CHORUS]
Em
Crying though she was

        G
She did speak these tender words

     C             Am    C
"The things that I am

                           D
I would not change for any man"
[VERSE 4]
  G                D
I tried to comfort her

        Em               B7
Ah, but she would not be still

     C               G
I'll not forget that day

     A7            C                G
When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hill

     C               G
I'll not forget that day

     A7            C     N.C.       G
When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hill
