     G+G                  D MajorD
There's a girl up on the mountain I once knew
 G+G                  D MajorD
I let her go and now I'm sad and blue

She'll come down to me someday

But the girl up on the mountain never knew

Verse:
    G+G                   D MajorD
So she gave herself to someone else back then
G+G                  D MajorD
Thought I'd never see her face again
B minorBm        A augmentedA
Found a new love of my own
D MajorD         G+G     G/F#
Broke my heart and now she's gone
    Em7/BEm7/B     A augmentedA           D MajorD
But the girl up on the mountain still remains

On every star I see tonight

A majorA million diamonds up above
D MajorD         G+G   G/F#
Shine down on the one I love
  Em7/BEm7/B    A augmentedA             D MajorD
The poets have a thousand tales they tell


Verse:
 G+G                    D MajorD
About love that didn't work out well
  B minorBm      A augmentedA
And me I sleep alright tonight

'Cause in my dreams I hold up tight
    Em7/BEm7/B     A augmentedA            D MajorD
But the girl up on the mountain's up there still
          Em7/BEm7/B  A augmentedA       G+G    D MajorD
Oh, and I love her now,  guess I always will
