How I Long To Be In The Mountains

Lonesome River Band

 

            A                                        E

Well I started out one day for the mountains

                                           A

The city life had taken its toll

        A                                             E

The air is crisp and clean in the mountains

                                                                      A

And when I’m down that's where I want to go

 

<CHORUS>

          C                     D                A

          How I long to be in the mountains

                          C                          D              E

With the clouds above and valleys below

C                 D                    A                 D

Life sure is sweet in the mountains for me

        C               D                 E                    A

          And when I’m down that's where I wanna go

 

     A                                               E

A man can see all day from the mountains

                                            A

His spirit's lifted up to the sky

          A                                            E

Whenever you stand high on the mountain

                                                   A

Your troubles fade away by and by
