Misty Mountain by James Keelaghan
Misty Mountain
INTRO: F G Am (4x) F
G Am
Off the Misty Mountain
F G Am
Wild flowers bind the ground
F G Am
Down by the rushing river
F G Am
Force will wear those boulders down
F G Am
Me, I'm underneath my covers
F G Am
Me, I'm trapped inside my brain
F G Am
While up above the Misty Mountain
F G Am
Up above the rushing river
F G Am
Up above the bed of longing
F G Am -pause-
The eagle takes the wind
CHORUS:
C G F
The eagle takes the wind, my friend
C
You know, the eagle takes the wind
G F
It makes me think of this my friend
G Am
Where does the eagle live in me?
INSTRUMENTAL: F G Am (4x)
F G Am
I go crawling through this city
F G Am
I say this city will be my home
F G Am
I say, "Woman you are halfway pretty"
F G Am
"May, you never be alone"
F G Am
Be it scorn or be it favour
F G Am
Be it but a moment gone
F G Am
But I stood before the mirror
F G Am
Like an open-ended cavern
F G Am
Like a breath held in, inhaled holding
F G Am -pause-
And I barely knew my name
CHORUS:
C G F
I barely knew my name, my friend
C
I barely knew my name
G F
It makes me think of this my friend
G Am
Where do I live in me?
INSTRUMENTAL: F G Am (4x)
BRIDGE:
F G Am
It's a planet of resistance
F G Am
And a whirling flame of choice
F G Am
Are you my comrades in persistence?
F G Am
I swear to know us by our voice
F G Am
But though we lay down in dusty caverns
F G Am
We are ragged as a scar
F G Am
And when we rest, our eyes stay open
F G Am -pause-
We are always off to war
CHORUS:
C G F
We're always off to war, my friend
C
You know, we're always off to war
G F
It makes me think of this my friend
G Am
Where can the quiet be?
INSTRUMENTAL: F G Am (4x)
F G Am
But is it underneath my covers?
F G Am
Or trapped inside my brain?
F G Am
(Is it at the door?) The Misty Mountain
F G Am
(Is it at the door?) The rushing river
F G Am
Is it at the bar? The bed of roaming?
F G Am
Where the eagle takes the wind
F G Am
The eagle takes the wind
F G Am
The eagle takes the wind
OUTRO: F G Am (4x)
