Beauty of the West - lyrics and chords
Every [F]time I can I make a pilgrimage
[Bb]to the height of [C]land
and [F]look out across the sea
to [C]where the mountains [Bb]stand
When the [F]landscape before my eyes
puts [Bb]Bierstadt to [C]shame
[F]it can be hard for me
not to [C]add drops to the [Bb]rain
CHORUS:
[F]Ooh [Bb]ooh the beauty of the [F]west
It takes my breath a[C]way … and gives it [Gm]back, re[Bb]freshed
[F]Ooh [Bb]ooh the beauty of the [F]west
The beau[C]ty of [Gm]life after [Bb]death
BRIDGE:
[F]O [Bb]o [F]o [C]ooo [Bb]o [F]o [Bb]o… [F]o…
A [F]few lonely trees
stand on the [Bb]cutblock on the [C]ridge
[F]_ telling [C]me
“Don’t take us for [Bb]granted”
I [F]sense many before
have [Bb]stood right where I [C]stand
[F]come to spend some time
with the [C]spirit of the [Bb]mountain
CHORUS
BRIDGE
[F]Something in the air
[Bb]gives me courage of [C]heights
[F]many things are possible
[C]in the golden [Bb]light
Could I [F]spread my wings and soar
like the [Bb]eagle above [C]me
fly [F]to the home of the brave
and the [C]land of the [Bb]free
CHORUS
Ooh ooh the beauty of the west
It takes my breath away
and gives it back, refreshed
Ooh ooh the beauty of the west
The beauty
... of the west
