[Verse 1]
     Em7             Dsus
O how high would I climb mountains
       C2                            G
If the mountains were where You hide
     Em7                 Dsus
O how far I'd scale the valleys
      C2                  G
If You graced the other side
 
 
[Verse 2]
     Em7                 Dsus
O how long have I chased rivers
           C2                  G
From lowly seas to where they rise
            Em7               Dsus
Against the rush of grace descending
        C2                  G
From the source of its supply
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
              C         Dsus       Em7
'Cause in the highlands and the heartache
               G2                Dsus
You're neither more or less inclined
       C           Dsus       Em7
I would search and stop at nothing
            C2                     (G)
You're just not that hard to find
 
 
[Chorus]
G                                   D
 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                          (C)
You're the heaven where my heart is
         C                                   Em    D     C    G
 In the highlands and the heartache all the same
 
 
[Verse 3]
    Em7                  Dsus
O how far beneath Your glory
          C2                   G
Does Your kindness extend the path
                Em7               Dsus
From where Your feet rest on the sunrise
             C2                   G
To where You sweep the sinner's past
 
 
[Verse 4]
    Em7                      Dsus
O how fast would You come running
           C2                      G
If just to shadow me through the night
         Em7                   Dsus
Trace my steps through all my failure
            C2             G
And walk me out the other side
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
              C     Dsus          Em7
For who could dare ascend that mountain
              G2             Dsus
That valleyed hill called Calvary
            C2    Dsus        Em7
But for the One I call Good Shepherd
           C2                        (G)
Who like a lamb was slain for me
 
 
[Chorus]
G                                  (D)
 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                       (C)
You're the heaven where my heart is
        C                                   Em    D     C    G
 In the highlands and the heartache all the same
 
 
 
[Bridge]
              Em7                   Dsus
Whatever I walk through, wherever I am
                      C2                  G
Your name can move mountains wherever I stand
                Em7                        D
And if ever I walk through the valley of death
                        C2                  G
I'll sing through the shadows my song of ascent
              Em7                   Dsus
Whatever I walk through, wherever I am
                      C2                  G
Your name can move mountains wherever I stand
                Em7                        D
And if ever I walk through the valley of death
                        C2                  G
I'll sing through the shadows my song of ascent
 
 
[Tag]
             Em7       D     C2  G
my song of ascent, Whoa, Whoa
             Em7       D     C2  G
my song of ascent, Whoa, Whoa
 
 
[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                            (D)
 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                  (C)
You're the heaven where my heart is
         C                                    G
 In the highlands and the heartache all the same
