I chose to use barre chords instead of regular chords because it gave off a fuller sound:
e|-5-3-1-2--2--3-|
B|-5-3-1-2--3--4-|
G|-5-4-2-3--4--5-|
D|-7-5-3-4--4--5-|
A|-7-5-3-4--2--3-|
E|-5-3-1-2--x--x-|
[Am] [G] [F] [F#] [Bm] [Cm]
Intro:
[Am] [G]
(I play this as the verses just to keep it interesting)
e|-----------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------|
G|----------5-----------5-------------4b4----------4b4-|
D|----------7-----------7-------------5------------5---|
A|-----7---(7)-----7---(7)-------5---(5)------5---(5)--|
E|-5-5---5-(5)-5-5---5-(5)-5/3-3---3-(3)--3-3---3-(3)--|
If I tr[Am]ust in the wind she will pave me a different r[G]oad
I will t[Am]ry and start over but I think I must choose someone e[G]lse
I am pu[Am]lled from the pages where the letters lack the pigment of tr[G]ust
must be o[F]n my way, I?ve got to get h[G]ome
won?t be b[F]ack someday, so let it unf[G]old
[(Am] [G)]
I?ve aba[Am]ndoned the outcome in search of the rest I de[G]serve
you can [Am]do what you will with my body but I won?t ring the b[G]ell
I?ve omi[Am]tted the chapters that bow and admit de[G]feat
must be o[F]n my way, I?ve got to get h[G]ome
won?t be b[F]ack someday, so let it unf[G]old
[Am/G/F#]I Am a mo[F]untain
of cavernous pe[G]ople [Am/G/F#]
[F]searching for a lighthouse in the f[G]og
(Repeat twice)
[(Am] [G)]
of the flo[Am]wers that grew from the cracks in the ground you pa[G]ved
didn?t y[Am]ou think he would warn me through the thorns of my waking dr[G]eams
when the ri[Am]ddles connected the dots of this const[G]ellation
must be o[F]n my way, I?ve got to get h[G]ome
won?t be b[F]ack someday, so let it unf[G]old
[Am/G/F#]I Am a mo[F]untain
of cavernous pe[G]ople [Am/G/F#]
[F]searching for a lighthouse in the f[G]og
(Repeat twice)
[Bm]I found a reason to leave you with this [Cm]load
[Bm]all I can do is forgive your broken h[Cm]eart
[Bm]trapped in this tower made of amber for too l[Cm]ong
[Bm]all I can do is forgive your broken h[Cm]eart
[Am/G/F#]I Am a mo[F]untain
of cavernous pe[G]ople [Am/G/F#]
[F]searching for a lighthouse in the f[G]og
(Repeat twice)
