-6   6   6  5 -6   6    6  5    -6  6  6 5  6
Standing on a mountain looking down on a city, 
6   -6  65   -66  6  5  -6  6  5  4   5    5
the way I   feel  is a doggone pity. Teardrops 
 4  4    -4  4  5   5    4    -6 6   6    5
falling down a mountain side, many times I've 
-6    6   -6 -6  6     6    56     5   6   6
been here, many times I've cried.  We used to 
6  6  -6 6    5   -4  4   -3' 4     5   5  5
be so happy, when we were in love, high on a 
-4   4   -4  4   
mountain of love.  

Verse 2:
-66   6 5   -66    6     5   -6   -6   6
Night after night, I've been standing here 
 56    -6  6   65  -6    6  6    5   -6   
alone, weeping my heart out'til the cold
 6    54    -4  5   -4    5    4   4   -4  
gray dawn, praying that you're lonely and
 4      5    5     4   -6  6   6   5   -66
you'll come here, too, hoping just by chance
 6     5  -6 -6   6     6   56    6  6   6
that I'll get a glimpse of you.  Trying hard
6   -6   6   5-4  4   -3' 4    5   5  5
to find you somewhere a-bove, high on a
 -4  4   -4  4
mountain of love.

Chorus:
4 -6   -6  -6  7   -6  -7  -7  6   5      -5
A mountain of love, a mountain of love.  You 
   7   -6 -5 5     4   -6  -6 7 -6 -7  -7   6
should be ashamed, we used to be a mountain of 
 5    5  -5   7     -6     -5    5-4
love but you just changed your name.  

Verse 3:
-6   6   5 -6    6     5  -6  6   6    5  6
Way down below there's a half million people, 
-6   6      6     5   -66   6   5   -6  6
somewhere there's a church with a  big tall 
5   4      5  5   5    4      -4     4  -4 5
steeple.  Inside the church, there's an altar 
 -4     5    -4  4    -6  6   6     5  -6   6
filled with flowers. Wedding bells are ringing 
 6   5     -6   -6    6   56      6     6
and they should have been ours.  That's why 
6   6  -6  6   6    5     4  -3'   4     5
I'm so lonely, my dreams gone a - bove, high 
5  5  -4   4  -4   4
on a mountain of love.

Repeat chorus and verse 3.
