Lyrics

Far o (F5)ver

the Mis ty Moun tains rise,

leave us (Eb69)stand ing

What was be fore,

is our king dom,

a (Eb)dis tant (F5)light.

Fier y moun tain

be (Eb)neath the (Fm)moon.

The words un (Eb)spok en,

we’ll be there soon.

For home a song

that ech oes on,

and all who (Ab)find us

will (Eb)know the (Fm)tune.

Some folk we nev er for (Eb)get.

Some kind we nev er for give.

Have n’t seen the back of us yet,

we’ll fight as long as we (Eb)live.

All eyes on the hid den (Eb)door,

to the Lone ly Moun tain borne.

We’ll ride in the gath er ing storm

un til we get our long for (Eb)got ten (F5)gold.

We lay (Fm)un der the (Eb)Mis ty Moun tains (Fm)cold,

in slum bers (Eb)deep

and dreams of (Fm)gold.

We must a wake,

our lives (Gm)to make,

and in the dark ness

a (Eb)torch we (F5)hold.

From long a go

when (Eb)lan terns (Fm)burned,

un til this (Eb)day

Her fate un known,

Oh,

We must a wake

and make the (Cm)day

to find a (Db)song

for heart and (Bbm)soul.

Some folk we nev er for (Eb)get.

Some kind we nev er for give.

Have n’t seen the end of it yet,

we’ll fight as long as we (Eb)live.

All eyes on the hid den (Eb)door,

to the Lone ly Moun tain borne.

We’ll ride in the gath er ing storm

un til we get our long for (Eb)got ten (F5)gold.

Far a (Db)way

from (Cm)Mis ty Moun tains (Fm)cold.
