[Intro]
G D7 C G D7 G
[Chorus 1]
G
Well I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
D7
Yeah I'm going up on Heartbreak Hill
C G
I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
D7 G
Because I've lost my will to live
[Verse 1]
G
It was six o'clock yesterday morning
D7
When my sweet baby packed up to leave
C G
It was six o'clock yesterday morning
D7 G N.C.
And I ain't done nothing but grieve
[Chorus 2]
G
Well I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
D7
Yeah I'm going up on Heartbreak Hill
C G
I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
D7 G
Because I've lost my will to live
[Instrumental 1]
G D7 C G D7 G
[Verse 2]
G
Well I cried and I begged and I pleaded
D7
For my sweet baby not to go
C G
Like the leaf that's caught in a whirlwind
D7 G N.C.
Where she's gone now I'll never know
[Chorus 3]
G
Well I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
D7
Yeah I'm going up on Heartbreak Hill
C G
I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
D7 G
Because I've lost my will to live
[Instrumental 2]
G D7 C G D7 G
[Verse 3]
G
Now why does a man let a woman
D7
Turn him into a hollow shelf
C G
And walk up and leave him behind her
D7 G N.C.
Like a ship at sea with no sail
[Chorus 4]
G
Well I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
D7
Yeah I'm going up on Heartbreak Hill
C G
I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
D7 G
Because I've lost my will to live
