As recorded by Jethro Tull (From the 2022 Album THE ZEALOT GENE) [Intro] Am Dm Am [Verse 1]
Am
Mine is the power and mine is the glory;

            Dm                    Am
Mine is the mountain up which you tread

Am
Give me bold questions, give me good reason

                                     E5
Tell me you love me, fear all I have said
[Verse 2]
Am
Don't imitate me, don't forsake me

Am
In images silver, in idols of gold

Am
Don't make me jealous; don't make me angry

Am
Don't ever leave me out in the cold

Am                  E5
Mine is the mountain
[Bridge]
D
Bring all your pomp

G                        D
Precious jewels and your finеry

G             Bm        Em         F#m
Build me safe haven for tablеts of stone

                    D       C            D
To live through the ages to scold and to guide you

C          Bm           Em         Am
Threaten cajole you and cut to the bone

Am
Mine in the mountain
[Verse 3]
Am
I'm no pushover lamb, no gentle provider;

Am
Vengeance, retribution are my middle names

Am
I can make a cadaver of your women, your firstborn

Am                                      E5
With a snap of a finger, of salt and of flame
[Flute Solo] Em F Em F Em F Em F G Am Dm Am Dm Am D G D G Bm Em F#m D C D C Bm Em Gm Em Gm Dm Am Dm Am G#m Bm Dm Bm G#m Bm Dm Bm Am [Verse 4]
Am
Matty and Lucas may bring something softer

Am
Gentle in word and gentle in deed

Am
But you who ignore these things that are written

Am
Will define the story your children will read

Am                    E5
Mine is the mountain
[Bridge]
D
Bring all your pomp

G                        D
Precious jewels and your finеry

G             Bm        Em         F#m
Build me safe haven for tablеts of stone

                    D       C            D
To live through the ages to scold and to guide you

C          Bm           Em         Am
Threaten cajole you and cut to the bone

Am
Mine in the mountain
[Verse 5]
Am
So think of me fondly in spite of the ranging

Am
The ranting, the raving, the threatening tone

                         Dm            Am
For I am the father, the power and the glory

Am
And now, for God's sake, kindly leave me alone

Am
Mine is the mountain
[Outro] E F G Am F Am
