Mountains Of Sorrow

C/G Fmaj7 C/G

[Verse]
     G  C/G  Fmaj7   C/G
When I awoke from my dream
Am              G               Fmaj7
Awakened by the darkness of the night
           C/G     Fmaj7 C/G
I was unprepared to be unseen
Am       G        Fmaj7
I was prepared to fight


[Chorus]
                 Am                    G
Oh the rains are bitter, the winds are strong
        Fmaj7                       G        C/G
In the mountains of sorrow and the rivers of song


[Verse]
           G    C/G        Fmaj7   C/G
And I was unprepared in my animal state
    Am              G             Fmaj7
To contemplate the cruel winds of fate
             C/G                      Am
And I say a prayer for those who carry on
          C/G                         G        C/G
Past the mountains of sorrow and the rivers of song


[Bridge]
           Fmaj7
And I'll fade away
          C/G
I'll fade away
      Am       G
In a glass of corn liquor
     Fmaj7
The memories of eatin'
 Fm                      C/G
Memories of fire, and of wine

[Verse]
       C/G        Fmaj7     C/G
One by one, the procession passes
 Am           G                   Fmaj7
Later in the day we'll raise our glasses
          C/G         Am
To a good man, now belongs
        C/G                         G        C/G
To the mountains of sorrow and the rivers of song

[Verse]
              C/G    Fmaj7 C/G
And I have a cabin of solitude
   Am               G                 Fmaj7
I built it with my own hands, it's quite crude
           C/G    Fmaj7  C/G
Ain't much to it, this I know
      Am                    G             Fmaj7
But I won't leave too much behind me here when I go


[Chorus]
                    Am                G
I"ll be seeking my fortunes, carrying on
          Fmaj7                       G        C/G
Past the mountains of sorrow and the rivers of song
        C/G                         G        C/G
To the mountains of sorrow and the rivers of song
           C/G                           G        C/G
Oh, these mountains of sorrow and these rivers of song
