Standard (EADGBE)
Standing on a mountain looking down on a city,
the way I feel is a doggone pity
Teardrops falling down a mountainside,
many times I ve been here, and many times I ve cried
We used to be so happy when we were in love,
high on a mountain of love
Night after night I m a standing here alone,
weeping my heart out till cold gray dawn
Hoping that you re lonely and you come here too,
hoping just by chance that I ll get a glimpse of you
Trying hard to find you, somewhere up above,
high on a mountain of love
The mountain of love, the mountain of love, you should be ashamed
We used to be a mountain of love,
but you sure changed your name
Way down below there s a half a million people,
somewhere there s a church with a big tall steeple
Inside a church there s an altar filled with flowers,
wedding bells are ringing and they should a been ours
That s why I m so lonely, my dreams gone above,
high on a mountain of love
The mountain of love, the mountain of love, you should be ashamed
We used to be a mountain of love,
but you sure changed your name
Way down below there s a half a million people,
somewhere there s a church with a big tall steeple
Inside a church there s an altar filled with flowers,
wedding bells are ringing and they should a been ours
That s why I m so lonely, my dreams gone above,
high on a mountain of love
high on a mountain of love
high on a mountain of love . . .
