Mountains Of Sorrow (rivers Of Song) Uke tab by Amos Lee

[Intro]
C/G F/C C/G

[Verse]
     G  C/G  F/C     C/G
When I awoke from my dream
Am              G               F/C
Awakened by the darkness of the night
           C/G     F/C        C/G
I was unprepared to be unseen
Am       G        F/C
I was prepared to fight


[Chorus]
                 Am                    G
Oh the rains are bitter, the winds are strong
        F/C                             G        C/G
In the mountains of sorrow and the rivers of song


[Verse]
           G    C/G        F/C      C/G
And I was unprepared in my animal state
    Am              G             F/C
To contemplate the cruel winds of fate
             C/G                      Am
And I say a prayer for those who carry on
          C/G                         G        C/G
Past the mountains of sorrow and the rivers of song


[Bridge]
           F/C
And I'll fade away
          C/G
I'll fade away
      Am       G
In a glass of corn liquor
     F/C
The memories of eatin'
 Fm                      C/G
Memories of fire, and of wine


[Instrumental]

|   G   | F/C |   Fm   |


[Verse]
       C/G        F/C     C/G
One by one, the procession passes
 Am           G                   F/C
Later in the day we'll raise our glasses
          C/G         Am
To a good man, now belongs
        C/G                         G        C/G
To the mountains of sorrow and the rivers of song


[Instrumental]
| C/G F/C | C/G |   Am G    | F/C |
|    C/G    | Am  | C/G G C/G | C/G   |


[Verse]
              C/G   F/C   C/G
And I have a cabin of solitude
   Am               G                 F/C
I built it with my own hands, it's quite crude
           C/G    F/C  C/G
Ain't much to it, this I know
      Am                    G             F/C
But I won't leave too much behind me here when I go


[Chorus]
                    Am                G
I"ll be seeking my fortunes, carrying on
          F/C                       G        C/G
Past the mountains of sorrow and the rivers of song
        C/G                         G        C/G
To the mountains of sorrow and the rivers of song
           C/G                           G        C/G
Oh, these mountains of sorrow and these rivers of song
