Think I have finally rescued this from
the mess I made of it previously. These chords will work
for a 15 bar autoharp, Basia Bulat plays it
on a 21 bar autoharp.
Am Dm F
How could I be the last to know?
F C G
When they told me where the fool had gone?
F G Am
I was but the youngest one
Am C F C G Am
Up there on the hills they're climbing on
Am Dm F
You went up with an open heart
C G
When they found you it was all but cold
G F G Am
Those hounds they sing so low
Am C F C F
Up there on the hills they're climbing on
F C Dm Am
You saw the light of gold and rushed
Am C Am G
You said you couldn't fight it off
F C Dm Am
This is the story of the one you lost
C Dm C G Am
And I wanted to run over your love
Am Dm F
You found it in the deepest thorns
F C G
Flooded up from the darkest wells
G F G Am
Bring your heartstrings with the bells
Am C F C G Am
Up there on the hills they're climbing on
Am Dm F
And if I hadn't drowned up there
F C G
In the night before the storm took hold
G F G Am
I know I would find them gold
Am C F C G F
Up there on the hills they're climbing on
F C Dm Am
Another sight of gold and rush
Am C Am G
Oh I could never fight them off
F C Dm Am
Another story of the one you lost
C Dm C G C
And I wanted to run over your love
C
In the darkest of days
G
In my daydreams there
C
There in the eye of that tempest
G
You're nearer to me
Am
21 years
F
You've been here every morning
C
21 roses you hold
G
But they're fading now
Am
I'm still there waiting
