Hi All,
Been playing for years and thought I should actually contribute something
back. I nicked this tab from watching Adam Thompson (lead singer of
Chocolate Starfish and born legend) on this youtube video:

I reckon I'm not too far off but please feel free to send any corrections.
I'd be very sad if this song disappeared into the past. It's a beautiful
song sung by someone who can belt out a hell of a tune...
Cheers...
Standard Tuning
Mountain - Chocolate Starfish
Intro - G - Bm - Am/G - C/G
GThere once was a wrong, tGsushought it was right
GThere once was a truth that tGsushought it could lie
Then Emthey saw
DThey C/Gwere nothing F/Gnew at all
GAfter theGsus storm, along came the landslide
GWould theGsusy climb? Would they swim? Time to decide
If I Emhad to choose
CI kAmnow Dwhat I’d do
GYou wanted me to be a mountain
I’d Bmrather be a river
AmWater flCow caGn wash a hill away
You Gwanted me to fly
I waBmnt to get high
AmHow elseC am I gonnaG see what I want to see?
I am for now, you are forever
And behind the rust is buried treasure
Is it gold?
Is it something we can hold?
GAll will come and go (all will come and go)
GAll will come and go (like a river flow)
I always knew
What I had to do
You wanted me to be a mountain
I’d rather be a river
Water flow can wash a hill away
You wanted me to fly
I want to get high
How else am I gonna see what I want to see?
I always knew
There was rust between the truth
I always knew
What I had to do
You wanted me to be a mountain
I’d rather be a river
Water flow can wash a hill away
You wanted me to fly
I want to get high
How else am I gonna see what I want to see?
Na Na Na Na Na...
(You want me to be a mountain)
You want me to be a river
Water flow can wash that hill
Wash it away, wash it away
(You wanted me to fly)
Ooh, you wanted me to fly
How else am I gonna see what I want to see?
