Verse:
A mountain train's coming down the tracks - she ain't wasting time,
She's following me, 'cos I'm going back, right to the end of the line,
She know's I ain't been anywhere,
Because I'll come back everytime to her.
Chorus:
Walking with a mountain,
Walking with a mountain.
Verse:
The troubles and tears, I take 'em in years - I left so many behind,
Maybe it's strange to rearrange - who know's what I'll find,
But anything's better than the life I've known,
I can't face anything that low,
Walking with a mountain,
Walking with a mountain.
Solo over verses
Walking with a mountain,
Walking with a mountain.
for the rest simply use the same chords
Now when she talks to me, I can see just where I'm headed to,
She sits, drinks, takes it all in, just to admire the view,
But if I had my choice in life,
I'd take that woman for my wife.
Walking with a mountain,
Walking with a mountain.
[...]
Jumping jack flash, it's a gas,
Jumping jack flash, it's a gas.
some soli again
