Capo 3
AmYou've stayed too Glong upon this Dmmountain
              Am             GDMaj
It's time you journey to the sea
AmSometimes to tGrust in your fDmalse comfort
AmIs easier Gthan trustinDmajg me E/G#  
ASome E/Amen B/Aonly beliAeve in wE/Ahat tBm/Aheir eC#m/Ayes can sDmajeeE/G#  
ASome E/Amen B/Aonly beliAeve in wE/Ahat tBm/Aheir mC#m/Ainds concDmajeive
DmBut believing?s like coA/C#nceiving
This child that we?re rGeceiving
A gift beyond our rD/F#eason
Its more of what we Dmneed, and less of what we Emknow
                    FMaj                      G#Maj(sus)
It calls not to our mind, but cries out to our soul
AmThat mountain?s G/Bburning in the Csky
To the Fheart of G(sus)heaven
AmWithout the G/Bfire we?ll never Cfly
To the hFeart of G(sus)heaven
AmCan you G/Bhear God?s holy Ccry
From the Fheart of G(sus)heaven
AmLay it all down, lay it aG/Bll down
Lay it aCll down, for the Fheart of G(sus)heaven
