Misc Soundtrack – Cold Mountain - Great High Mountain (Guitar)

G
Once I stood at the foot of a great high mountain

       D                 G
That I wanted so much to climb

G
And on top of this mountain was a beautiful fountain

     D                       G
That flows with the water of life

G
I fell down on my knees at the foot of this mountain

            D                G
I cried, "O Lord what must I do?

G
I want to climb this mountain, I want to drink from this fountain

     D                    G
That flows so clear in my view"

G
Then I heard a sweet voice from the top of this mountain

         D                      G
Saying, "Child put your hand in mine"

G
I started climbing slowly, "Watch your steps at the edges

    D                  G
And take one step at a time"

G
I started climbing upward taking one step at a time

    D                G
The higher I got the harder I climbed

G
I'm still climbing upward and my journey's almost ended

    D                       G
I'm nearing the top and you ought to see the view

G
Oh the water flows freely, there's enough to make you free

   D                                   G
So friend if you're thirsty climb this mountain with me
