Gordon Lightfoot - Redwood Hill


CAPO: 1st Fret



[INTRO:] C majorC  G+G  A7A7 C majorC G+G

[VERSE 1:]
           D MajorD
I climbed the Redwood Hill
   E minorEm     B7B7
'Twas on a rainy day
  C majorC       G+G
To rise above the throng
  A7A7              D7D7
And talk with Mother Nature for a while

[VERSE 2:]
  G+G       D MajorD
She told me of her love
    E minorEm       B7B7
For the children in her trust
  C majorC        G+G
And of her grave concern
    A7A7    C majorC       G+G
For the likes of you and me and us


[CHORUS:]
E minorEm
Crying though she was
    G+G
She did speak these tender words
   C majorC       A minorAm  C majorC
"The things that I am
              D MajorD
I could not change for any man"


[VERSE 3:]
 G+G        D MajorD
I tried to comfort her
    E minorEm        B7B7
Ah, but she would not be still
  C majorC        G+G
And how the rain did fall
   A7A7        C majorC        G+G
As I found my way back down the Redwood Hill

[INSTRUMENTAL:] G+G   D MajorD  E minorEm  B7B7  C majorC  G+G  A7A7 C majorC G+G


[CHORUS:]
E minorEm
Crying though she was
    G+G
She did speak these tender words
   C majorC       A minorAm  C majorC
"The things that I am
              D MajorD
I would not change for any man"


[VERSE 4:]
 G+G        D MajorD
I tried to comfort her
    E minorEm        B7B7
Ah, but she would not be still
   C majorC        G+G
I'll not forget that day
   A7A7      C majorC        G+G
When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hill
   C majorC        G+G
I'll not forget that day
   A7A7      C majorC   N.C.    G+G
When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hill
