Standard (EADGBE)

Refrain i

 You may climb the mountains high.

 You may sail the oceans deep.

 You may walk the wide lands.

 But you’ll never see, no you’ll never see

Gentle hills wooded and green.

Virgin slopes blooming with beauty.

 The green fairy dancing for me

 fulfilling me with harmony.

Refrain i

 You may climb the mountains high.

 You may sail the oceans deep.

 You may walk the wide lands.

 But you’ll never see, no you’ll never see…

 Where the world can do me no harm

 nor trouble my peace, my tranquillity.

 Where it’s safe, warm and cosy.

 This is the place where I’m free.

 But if you believe in true love,

 in a tune, not fame nor fortune.

Close your eyes, come with me.

 And then you’ll see, and then you’ll see…

Refrain ii

 We’ll climb the mountains high.

 We’ll sail the oceans deep.

 We’ll walk the wide lands.

 If you believe in me, you’ll see.

 We’ll climb the mountains high.

 We’ll sail the oceans deep.

 We’ll walk the wide lands.

 If you believe in me, you will see.

Bridge

Now it’s time to face the world.

 Goodbye soft hills.

 Goodbye blue river deep.

 Goodbye my fairy homeland

 even though I’m gone I’m still your son.

Refrain ii

 We’ll climb the mountains high.

 We’ll sail the oceans deep.

 We’ll walk the wide lands.

 If you believe in me, you’ll see.
