Johnny Rivers 1964 (Harold Dorman 1960) * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_of_Love E
E
Standing on a mountain looking down on a city,
the way I feel is a doggone pity
A
Teardrops falling down a mountainside,

E
many times I've been here, and many times I've cried

   B7                       A
We used to be so happy when we were in love,

E         B7          E
high on a mountain of love

E
Night after night I'm a standing here alone,
weeping my heart out till cold gray dawn
A
Hoping that you're lonely and you come here too,

E
hoping just by chance that I'll get a glimpse of you

B7                       A
Trying hard to find you, somewhere up above,

E         B7          E
high on a mountain of love

    A                     G#m               A              B
The mountain of love, the mountain of love, you should be ashamed

   A            G#m
We used to be a mountain of love,

    A                     B7
but you just changed your name

E
Way down below there's a half a million people,
somewhere there's a church with a big tall steeple
A
Inside a church there's an altar filled with flowers,

E
wedding bells are ringing and they should a been ours

B7                           A
That's why I'm so lonely, my dreams gone above,

E         B7          E
high on a mountain of love

    A                     G#m               A              B
The mountain of love, the mountain of love, you should be ashamed

   A            G#m
We used to be a mountain of love,

    A                     B7
but you just changed your name

somewhere there's a church with a big tall steeple

high on a mountain of love

high on a mountain of love

high on a mountain of love . . .
