Chords, Guitar Tablature & Lyrics
____________________________________________________________________________________

I don't know how many guitars are on this one, but it does start with one 6-string acoustic & Supe singin' lead. I'm going to show you the chords - you can take it from there. Be sure to visit my tab page in order to understand how I write tablature on the web.

By the way, I interpreted these chords from listening to the LP - I did not use any other written music as an aid in writing the tab presented on this page. If you think that I have made a mistake, please let me know about it by dropping me a quick note.

THE CHORDS:
 
 
(ggab) C  F  G  C
(GUITAR INTRO)
 
C                      F 
I've got a mountain of dreams to climb
 
        C                        F
'fore I get to that house on the hill
 
     C                    F
that keeps the lady of my morning
 
C                             F
in a brown earthen pot on the sill
 
       Em          Dm 
of the window that looks out
 
           G                       C    F   G   C   C   F   G   C    
across the valley, probably always will
 
 
C                        F
I'll make sure no one is watching me
 
     C                         F
like ev'ry good and successful thief
 
    C                       F        
and maybe tomorrow when the sun goes down
 
          C                  F 
I'll have put an end to this grief
 
   Em       Dm   
by giving myself a potted plant
 
      G                            C   F   G   C   C   F   G   C  
and a rainbow, calling it a wreath
 
 
 
G                     C            G
she's the energy that runs my day 
 
                          C      F 
and the first star out at night
 
                  C
by God, I'm gonna climb that hill
 
      G                         C 
if it takes, ev'ry bit of my my might
 
 
C                               F
in the morning the early summer breezes call
 
    C                         F
me away from my warm sleeping bed
 
    C                    F  
and fill me up with expectations
 
   C                       F
of filling this hole in my head
 
         Em         Dm 
that was left long ago
 
                G                              C   F   G   C   C   F   G   C     
somewhere in my lifetime, left me feeling dead
 
 
G                     C             G 
she's the energy that runs my day
 
                          C       F
and the first star out at night 
 
                  C
by God, I'm gonna climb that hill
 
      G                      C     
if it takes, ev'ry bit of my might
 
 
 
C                      F 
I've got a mountain of dreams to climb
 
        C                        F
'fore I get to that house on the hill
 
     C                    F
that keeps the lady of my morning
 
C                             F
in a brown earthen pot on the sill
 
       Em          Dm 
of the window that looks out
 
           G                       C     F   G   C   C   F   G   C  (G C) 
across the valley, probably always will

TIPS:

Each chord symbol receives 4 beats (except for the C, F, G, C chords played in the intro, between verses/choruses and the ending, AND when the F, Em chords are played - ALL these guys get just two beats).

This thing moves pretty fast - don't spend too much time looking at this tab - memorize it!

The intro uses these notes (string/fret): 6/3, 6/3, 5/0, 5/2).

Play bass notes & hammer, if you got 'em.

The ending has (G C) - this are G and C chords played very quickly.
