Verse 1:
  Em         D
O how high would I climb mountains
    C             G
If the mountains were where You hide
  Em          D
O how far I'd scale the valleys
   C         G
If You graced the other side


Verse 2:
  Em         D
O how long have I chased rivers
      C          G
From lowly seas to where they rise
      Em        D
Against the rush of grace descending
    C         G
From the source of its supply


Pre-Chorus 1:
       C     D     Em
'??Cause in the highlands and the heartache
        G         D
You're neither more or less inclined
    C      D     Em
I would search and stop at nothing
      C
You're just not that hard to find


Chorus:
G
 I will praise You on the mountain
D                        Em
 And I will praise You when the mountain'??s in my way
      D            C
You're the summit where my feet are
                      G
So I will praise You in the valleys all the same
               D
No less God within the shadows
                      Em
No less faithful when the night leads me astray
      D
You're the heaven where my heart is
C                      Em  D   C  G
 In the highlands and the heartache all the same


Verse 3:
  Em          D
O how far beneath Your glory
     C          G
Does Your kindness extend the path
        Em        D
From where Your feet rest on the sunrise
       C          G
To where You sweep the sinner's past


Verse 4:
  Em           D
O how fast would You come running
      C            G
If just to shadow me through the night
    Em          D
Trace my steps through all my failure
      C       G
And walk me out the other side


Pre-Chorus 2:
       C   D      Em
For who could dare ascend that mountain
       G        D
That valleyed hill called Calvary
      C   D      Em
But for the One I call Good Shepherd
      C
Who like a lamb was slain for me


Chorus:
G
 I will praise You on the mountain
D                        Em
 And I will praise You when the mountain'??s in my way
      D            C
You're the summit where my feet are
                      G
So I will praise You in the valleys all the same
               D
No less God within the shadows
                      Em
No less faithful when the night leads me astray
      D
You're the heaven where my heart is
C                      Em  D   C  G
 In the highlands and the heartache all the same



Bridge:
       Em           D
Whatever I walk through, wherever I am
           C          G
Your name can move mountains wherever I stand
         Em            D
And if ever I walk through the valley of death
            C          G
I'll sing through the shadows my song of ascent


       Em           D
Whatever I walk through, wherever I am
           C          G
Your name can move mountains wherever I stand
         Em            D
And if ever I walk through the valley of death
            C         G         Em  D  C  G
I'll sing through the shadows my song of ascent, my song of ascent
       Em   D   C   G
My song of ascent


Pre-Chorus 3:
     C    D    Em
From the gravest of all valleys
     G         D
Come the pastures we call grace
     C    D   Em
A mighty river flowing upwards
    C
From a deep but empty grave


Chorus:
G
 I will praise You on the mountain
D                        Em
 And I will praise You when the mountain'??s in my way
      D            C
You're the summit where my feet are
                      G
So I will praise You in the valleys all the same
               D
No less God within the shadows
                      Em
No less faithful when the night leads me astray
      D
You're the heaven where my heart is
C                      G
 In the highlands and the heartache all the same
