[Verse 1]
C                               F         C        F
You say the hill's too steep to climb.....Chiding
C                            F       C         F
Dm                                     G7         
You pick the place and I'll choose the time.....And 
       C                      F
I'll climb that hill, in my own way
C                         F             C            
I’ll wait around, for the right day.....And as I rise
           F
 above the treeline and the clouds
       G7             F                             
I look down, hear the sound of the things you said, 
  C    F
today

[Verse 2]
C                              F         C        F
Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd.....Smiling
C                               F         C         F
Merciless the magistrate turns 'round.....Frowning
Dm                               G7           C      
But who's the fool who wears the crown.....Go down, 
       F
in your own way
C                       F             C              
Where every day, is the right day.....And as you rise
           F
 above the fear lines in his brow
         G7             F                          
You look down, hear the sound of the faces in, the 
C      F
crowd
