I'm Not A Mountain

[Intro]
D Em
 
D        Em
(La-da-da-da-da-da)
 
 
[Verse]
D
If I could choose the things that I knew
Em
And all the things that I'd see
D
I'd let the room fill with memories until
Em
The walls were staring at me
D
The mystery of life is just taking flight
Em
I watch the walls closing in
         F#m
So, I swallow my pride and I take another bite
   G
I guess I'm dreaming again
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
I swear, I'm unattached, living in the past but
F#m
I can't get off my feet
Em
You say we'll all go mad, but I don't believe that
A
So, you'll prove it to me
 
D         Em
(La-da-da-da-da-da)
 
 
[Verse]
D
If I could choose, I'd never lose
Em
I'd always take without giving
D
I wrote down the truth in letters to you
Em
But I know you'll never get them
D
If I were a mountain, I'd stand my ground
Em
And maybe I'd never listen
F#m
But if I were a mountain, I'd close my mouth and
G
Maybe I'd be forgiving
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
But I'm not
F#m
I'm not
G
I'm not
A
I'm not
 
 
[Chorus]
Am         G
I'm not a mountain
D
I can't hold you on my own
Am          G
I'm not a mountain
D
I will crumble when you go
Am         G
There in the square
                       D
My arms in the air
D
And is it so bad
          Am        G      D
To be alone?
 
Am    G              D
I can do it on my own
 
 
[Instrumental]
Am G D
Am G D
Am G D
Am G D
 
 
[Outro]
Am                G
Is it really so bad?
                     D
Is it really so bad?
Am         G       D
I can do it on my own
 
Am G D
              (La da da da da da)

If I could choose the things that I knew
And all the things that I'd see
I'd let the room fill with memories until
The walls were staring at me

The mystery of life is just taking flight
I watch the walls closing in
So I swallow my pride and I take another bite
I guess I'm dreaming again

I swear I'm unattached
Living in the past but
I can't get off my feet
You say we'll all go mad
But I don't believe that
So you'll prove it to me

(La da da da da da)

If I could choose, I'd never lose
I'd always take without giving
I wrote down the truth in letters to you
But I know you'll never get them

If I were a mountain, I'd stand my ground
And maybe I'd never listen
But if I were a mountain, I'd close my mouth and
Maybe I'd be forgiving

But I'm not
I'm not
I'm not
I'm not

I'm not a mountain
I can't hold you on my own
I'm not a mountain
I will crumble when you go
There in the square, my arms in the air
And is it so bad to be alone?

I can do it on my own

(I'm not- I'm not a mountain)
(I'm not- I'm not a mountain)

Is it really so bad?
Is it really so bad?
I can do it on my own
