Great High Mountain Chords

Capo 1(Key: Ab)

Capo 1
 
[Verse]
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
 
[Verse]
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"
 
[Instrumental]
G G D G G G D G
 
[Verse]
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"
 
[Verse]
G
I started climbing upward taking one step at a time
    D                G
The higher I got the harder I climbed
 
[Instrumental]
G G D G G G D G
 
[Verse]
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
