Verse 1

G                  D7             G
As I looked at the valleys down below
                        D7             G
They were green just as far as I could see
             F           G                C
As my memory returned oh how my heart did yearn
    G           D7               G
For you and the day that used to be

Verse 2

          F            G            C
High on a mountain top wind blowin' free
G                  D7                G
Thinking about the days that used to be
          F            G            C
High on a mountain top standin' all alone
G                   D7                   G
Wondering where the years of my life has flown

Verse 3

                   D7            G
Oh I wonder if you ever think of me
                       D7           G
Or if time has blotted out your memory
                   F
As I listen to the breeze
        G                  C
Whisper gently through the trees
     G              D7                G
I'll always cherish what you meant to me

Verse 4

          F            G            C
High on a mountain top wind blowin' free
G                  D7                G
Thinking about the days that used to be
          F            G            C
High on a mountain top standin' all alone
G                   D7                   G
Wondering where the years of my life has flown

Verse 2

          F            G            C
High on a mountain top wind blowin' free
G                  D7                G
Thinking about the days that used to be
          F            G            C
High on a mountain top standin' all alone
G                   D7                   G
Wondering where the years of my life has flown
