[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
