Key of G

[Verse]
C               Am7         Bm                      C
   Big mountain, wide river, there's an ancient pull
C                    Bm                 D                      C
   These tree trunks, these stream beds, leave our bellies full

          G
They sing out
D             C              G
I am going to stand my ground
    D                   C            G
You rise to me and I'll blow you down
Em            C        D
I am going to stand my ground
    D7                  C            G
You rise to me and I'll blow you down

C            Am7              Bm                    C
   Hey Henry, can you hear me, let me see those eyes
C               Bm         D                        C
   This distance between us can seem a mountain size

    G
But boy
D                C                G
You are going to stand your ground
     D                C             G
They rise to you, you blow them down
Em             C                D
Let me see you stand your ground
        D7               C             G
If they rise to you, you blow them down

C                Bm                D                      C
   To cold climes comes springtime, so let me hear you say

   G
My love
D             C              G
I am going to stand my ground

They rise to me and I'll blow them down
Em            C              D
I am going to stand my ground
     D                   C             G
They rise to me and I'll blow them down

I am going to stand my ground
    D7                  C            G
You rise to me and I'll blow you down
