Mountain Of Love
by Charlie Pride
C
Standing on a mountain looking down on a city
The way I feel is a dog-gone pity
F
Teardrops are falling down the mountainside
C
Many times I've been here and many times I cried
G7 F
We used to be so happy when we were in love
C Dm G7 C
High on a mountain of love
Night after night I been standing here alone
C7
Weeping my heart out till cold grey dawn
F
Praying that you're lonely and you come here too
C
Hoping just by chance that I'll get a glimpse of you
G7 F
Trying hard to find you somewhere I love
C Dm7 G7 C C7
High on a mountain of love
F Em
Mountain of Love a Mountain of Love
F C C7
You should be ashamed
F Em
You used to be a mountain of love
F G7
But you just changed you name
C
Way down below there's a half a million people
Somewhere there's a church and a big tall steeple
F
Inside the church there's an alter filled with flowers
C
Wedding bells are ringing and it should have been ours
G7
That's why I so lonely my dreams gone above
C Dm G7 C C7
High on a mountain of love
repeat #3 & 4
