Intro: D MajorD

Verse:
        G+G          D MajorD
You know it's hard to keep things simple,
   G+G            D MajorD
It's hard to always do things right,
       G+G              D MajorD
but when the sun is shining, you know it's daytime,
        G+G               D MajorD
and when you've got the moon, then it must be night,
      G+G                    D MajorD
and I know most things, they're a little more complicated,
        G+G                  D MajorD
but I like to think that everything will turn out fine,
         G+G              D MajorD
and there's some obstacles, that you and I created,
       G+G                  D MajorD
and I don't know bout you, but I'm gonna try and deal with mine, before its too late honey,

Chorus:
A augmentedA       G+G       D MajorD
I tore down a mountain for you
A augmentedA       G+G       D MajorD
I tore down a mountain for you
A augmentedA           G+G         D MajorD
I couldn't get around, so I just went on through
A augmentedA       G+G       D MajorD
I tore down a mountain for you,

Verse:
And when my time on this earth here is finished,
I don't want a hundred trumpets, blasting out my name,
I just want to look down, from whichever place I've landed,
and see your smiling face, living on the same,
and I know things like this are hard to deal with,
but you've only got one chance, so you better make it your best,
and I might be content, if I never saw anybody else again,
but you, you're a little different from all the rest,
and that's why honey,

Chorus:
I tore down a mountain for you
I tore down a mountain for you
I couldn't get around, so I just went on through
really what else was I supposed to do?
when all that I really want is you?
