Mountains Lyrics
by Biffy Clyro
Saw the chorded version of this & made it better & took away the capo for those of
you who haven't gotten around to buying one yet.
& I know it's supposed to be played in Drop Db & all that, but this is to make
things a bit easier for people.
Now, I'd play this in all 5th chords (or lazy barre chords) because it sounds better that way.
Intro.
Repeat this pattern for the first verse to mimick the piano sound, improvise
around the picked notes, see what you like to play.
Verse 1:
Took a bite out of a mountain range,
thought my teeth'd break, the mountain did.
Let's go, I want to go,
all the way to the horizon.
I took a drink out of the ocean and
I'm treading water there before I drown.
Let's dive, I wanna dive,
To the bottom of the ocean.
I took a ride, I took a ride,
I wouldn't go there without you.
Let's take a ride, we'll take a ride,
I wouldn't leave here without you.
Chorus 1:
I am a mountain. I am the sea.
You can't take that away from me.
I am a mountain. I am the sea.
You can't take that away from me.
'Cos you tear us apart
With all the things you don't like.
You can't understand
That I won't leave,
'Til we're finished here,
And then you'll find out,
Where it all went wrong.
Verse 2: (Same as First Verse)
I wrote a note to the jungle and
They wrote me back that I was never crowned,
King of the jungle so,
There's an end to my horizon.
I took a ride, I took a ride,
I wouldn't go there without you.
Let's take a ride, we'll take a ride,
I wouldn't leave here without you.
Chorus 2:
I am a mountain. I am the sea.
You can't take that away from me.
I am a mountain. I am the sea.
'Cos you tear us apart
With all the things you don't like.
You can't understand
That I won't leave,
'Til we're finished here,
And then you'll find out,
Where it all went wrong.
Fill:
(Play these as fifths or chords, it's up to you!)
Bridge:
Nothing lasts forever,
Except you and me.
You are my mountain,
You are my sea.
Love will last forever,
Between you and me.
You are my mountain,
You are my sea.
Chorus 3:
I am a mountain. I am the sea.
You can't take that away from me.
I am a mountain, I am the sea.
I am a mountain, I am the sea.
And that is Mountains. Enjoy.
