[Verse 1]
    Em                  DO how high would I climb mountains
       C                         GIf the mountains were where You hide
    Em                    DO how far I'd scale the valleys
      C                  GIf You graced the other side


[Verse 2]
    Em                  DO how long have I chased rivers
           C                   GFrom lowly seas to where they rise
            Em                DAgainst the rush of grace descending
        C                 GFrom the source of its supply


[Pre-Chorus 1]
              C          D          Em'Cause in the highlands and the heartache
               G                 DYou're neither more or less inclined
       C           D         EmI would search and stop at nothing
            CYou're just not that hard to find


[Chorus]
G I will praise You on the mountain
D                                                Em And I will praise You when the mountain's in my way
           D                       CYou're the summit where my feet are
                                            GSo I will praise You in the valleys all the same
                              DNo less God within the shadows
                                           EmNo less faithful when the night leads me astray
           DYou're the heaven where my heart is
C                                           Em    D     C    G In the highlands and the heartache all the same


[Verse 3]
    Em                   DO how far beneath Your glory
          C                   GDoes Your kindness extend the path
                Em               DFrom where Your feet rest on the sunrise
             C                    GTo where You sweep the sinner's past


[Verse 4]
    Em                      DO how fast would You come running
           C                       GIf just to shadow me through the night
        Em                    DTrace my steps through all my failure
            C              GAnd walk me out the other side


[Pre-Chorus 2]
              C      D           EmFor who could dare ascend that mountain
              G                DThat valleyed hill called Calvary
            C     D           EmBut for the One I call Good Shepherd
           CWho like a lamb was slain for me


[Chorus]
G I will praise You on the mountain
D                                                Em And I will praise You when the mountain's in my way
           D                       CYou're the summit where my feet are
                                            GSo I will praise You in the valleys all the same
                              DNo less God within the shadows
                                           EmNo less faithful when the night leads me astray
           DYou're the heaven where my heart is
C                                           Em    D     C    G In the highlands and the heartache all the same



[Bridge]
              Em                     DWhatever I walk through, wherever I am
                      C                   GYour name can move mountains wherever I stand
                  Em                        DAnd if ever I walk through the valley of death
                        C                   GI'll sing through the shadows my song of ascent


              Em                     DWhatever I walk through, wherever I am
                      C                   GYour name can move mountains wherever I stand
                  Em                        DAnd if ever I walk through the valley of death
                        C                  G                  Em    D    C    GI'll sing through the shadows my song of ascent, my song of ascent
              Em     D     C     GMy song of ascent


[Pre-Chorus 3]
         C       D        EmFrom the gravest of all valleys
         G                  DCome the pastures we call grace
         C        D      EmA mighty river flowing upwards
       CFrom a deep but empty grave


[Chorus]
G I will praise You on the mountain
D                                                Em And I will praise You when the mountain's in my way
           D                       CYou're the summit where my feet are
                                            GSo I will praise You in the valleys all the same
                              DNo less God within the shadows
                                           EmNo less faithful when the night leads me astray
           DYou're the heaven where my heart is
C                                           G In the highlands and the heartache all the same
