Michelle Malone - Beyond The Mountain Lyrics

From the Album: Sugarfoot (SBS Records)

Beyond The Mountain Michelle Malone (STRANGE BIRD SONGS/ASCAP) A

A E
Tried to move a mountain- tried to calm the sea
D A Tried to love somebody who just don’t love me
F#m D And I feel like a candle trying to light up the sky
A E D A D A And the cold wind keeps blowing and I’m losing my might

I know somebody gonna love me someday

Then sorrow will leave me when love comes to stay

But I feel like a boxer, eyes too swollen to see
To go back to my corner and give up this dream (inst verse)

I called on the Doctor to give me relief

I called on the preacher, “Please give me some peace.”
Where is the loving that you promised me?

Beyond the Mountain, behind the sea

A E Beyond the mountain, behind the sea
D E D A D A Beyond the mountain waiting for me
