These chords are the normal shapes relative to the original C tuning. You can search around for something
that fits your own tuning or voice, you could transpose this 5 half steps down (so the Dm is an Am) and put
a capo on III to match the original key and have fairly comfortable shapes, but it's up to you.
Dm
(verse)
Dm C Em
every time I shed tears
Dm C Em
in the last past years
Dm C Em
when I pass through the hills
(chorus)
A C
oh, what images return
Dm C
oh I yearn
Dm C
for the roots of the woods
B A D C
that origin of all my strong and strange moods
Am Dm C
I lost something in the hills
C G Em
I lost something in the hills
(verse)
I grew up in declivities
others grow up in cities
where first love and soul takes rise
there where times in my life
when I felt mad and deprived
and only the slopes gave me hope
(chorus)
Em A C Dm
when I pass through the leg high grass I shall die
C Dm C
under the jasmin I shall die
Dm C
under the elder tree
B A D C
and I need not try to prepare for a new coming day
C G F C
where is it that fills the deepness I feel
B G Em A
You will say I'm not Robin the Hood
C B C B C
But how could I hide from top to foot
Dm C
that I lost something in the hills
C G Em
I lost something in the hills
Am Dm C
Oh I lost something in the hills
(verse)
Now I lean on my window sill
and I cry, though it's silly
and I'm dreaming of off and away
(chorus)
A C Dm C
oh I know further west these hills exist
Dm C Dm C
marked by apple trees marked by a straight brook
B A D C
that leads me wherever I want it to
Dm C
well I lost something in the hills
C G Em
I lost something in the hills
Am Dm C
oh, I lost something in the hills
