Intro:
C#m  B  A
C#m  B  A

Verse 1:
E                           A
Lying at the bottom - I can clearly see the top
         F#m                                  B
Pressed against this firm foundation - I count none of this as loss
            E                             A
And as I struggle up this mountain - with every bloody knee.
              F#m                                   B
You know, I'm often prone to stumble - but it's this rock that catches me

Chorus 1:
              C#m             B                A              E
And it's this rock that tells me - that's what valleys are for
          C#m          B                  A             E
It's from here that we measure - just how far we must go
          C#m                 B             A
You don't know how tall you stand until you fall

Verse 2:
E                            A
Mountains cast a shadow - At times it's hard to tell
         F#m                           B
Will the darkness over take you - will you succeed or fail
            E                                 A
Though I've climbed a hundred mountains - and stood upon their peaks
              F#m                                 B
Well, I still draw my greatest comfort - from the rock that lies beneath

Chorus 2:
              C#m             B                A              E
And it's this rock that tells me - that's what valleys are for
          C#m          B                  A             E
It's from here that we measure - just how far we must go
              C#m             B                A              E
Oh, it's this rock that tells me - that's what valleys are for
              C#m          B                  A             E
And it's from here that we measure - just how far we must go
                 C#m                 B             A
'Cause you don't know how tall you stand until you fall
            B                  C#m  B  A
That's what valleys are for
                  B            A      E
Well, that's what valleys are for.
