Am               G          D      Am  G D
Well I bet my soul on a six string gamble
      Am                          G             D       Am  G D
And I climb like hell through the brush and the bramble
              Am     G       D           Am         G    D
Even though I had my doubts, told myself don't look down
      Am                      G       D     Am
And I turned that hill into a pile of gravel


[Chorus]
              G    D/F# D  Em
It was only a mountain,    nothin' but a big ol' rock
       G    D/F# D        Em
Only a mountain, it ain't hard if you don't stop
        G                     D/F#         D
It just took a little step, a right then a left
       Em             G           C
Then a couple million more, who's countin'?
                   Am  G D
Hell, it's only a mountain

[Verse 2]
         Am                            G          D     Am  G D
Well you better know the bottom if you wanna be a climber
              Am                   G          D     Am  G D
Cause there's always another one a little bit higher
                      Am      G    D              Am      G    D
Just when I think I'm finally done I'm staring at another one
     Am                    G           D      Am
So I reach down deep and I lace 'em up tighter


[Chorus]
              G    D/F# D  Em
It was only a mountain,    nothin' but a big ol' rock
       G    D/F# D        Em
Only a mountain, it ain't hard if you don't stop
        G                     D/F#         D
It just took a little step, a right then a left
       Em             G           C
Then a couple million more, who's countin'?
                   Am  G D
Hell, it's only a mountain

[Bridge]
        Am                           G     D        Am  G D
Now I'm standing at the top with the sweat behind me
          Am                   G          D        Am
Yeah, you gotta look up if you ever wanna find me


[Chorus]
              G    D/F# D  Em
It was only a mountain,    nothin' but a big ol' rock
       G    D/F# D        Em
Only a mountain, it ain't hard if you don't stop
        G                     D/F#         D
It just took a little step, a right then a left
        Em              G        C
Now I'm standin' on the top just shoutin'
            G    D/F# D Em
It's only a mountain
            G    D/F# D Em
It's only a mountain, yeah
              G    D/F# D Em
It was only a mountain
       G    D/F# D Em
Only a mountain
Am  G D
      Only a mountain
Am  G D               Am  G D
     It was only a mountain, mmm
