Higher Mountains 
BbYou're out D#there aFmong the stars

I could Bbclimb that jagged peak I could cross that grFeat divide
If I Gmknew that you'd be waiting for me on thD#e other side
BbThe days paD#ss by mFy window now
BbOh, but nigD#hts likFe these are rough

When I Gmpass through Heaven's gateway let me enter as your D#bride
(Yes you will enter as my bride)
Bluebonnets in my Fhair (That I will gather for you D#there)
That you'll gather for me thereF  
BbYou're D#out therFe among the stars

Bb D# F

You're out there among the stars

Bb D# F

It never will seem right

Bb D# F

If I could get to where you are

Bb D# F

I'd be there tonight

Bb D# F

Were you just a dream I had

Bb D# F

How am I to know

Bb D# F

I can't hold you in my arms

Bb D# F

And I can't let you go

Bb F

Higher mountains, deeper valleys

Gm D#

Longer rivers stand between us now

I could climb that jagged peak I could cross that great divide

Gm D#

If I knew that you'd be waiting for me on the other side

Bb D# F

The days pass by my window now

Bb D# F

Oh, but nights like these are rough

Bb D# F

I can feel you in my heart

Bb D# F

But that's not close enough

Bb D# F

If I could hear you breathe again

Bb D# F

The comfort of your sigh

Bb D# F

I'd gladly trade tomorrow in

Bb D# F

On one more last goodbye

Bb F

Higher mountains, deeper valleys

Gm D#

Longer rivers stand between us now

When I rise above the seas(When you rise above the earth)

And the Firmaments collide (And the Firmaments collide)

Gm D#

When I pass through Heaven's gateway let me enter as your bride

(Yes you will enter as my bride)

F D#

Bluebonnets in my hair (That I will gather for you there)

That you'll gather for me there
