[Am][G][Gsus4]
[Am][G][Gsus4]

[Verse 1]
The [Am]mountain is steep
the ditches are deep
The [G]task in hand
is making us weep
[C]But here's a promise

[Verse 2]
(I intend to keep
[Bm]That I mean to keep)
Seed it in [D]your mind
and [Am]say it each night
Before you [G]sleep:
we will [Em]climb higher in [Am]time[G]
[Gsus4](och!)

[Verse 3]
You've got a [Am]head full of trouble
and a ship to build
(You think [G]you won't make it
but you know you will
[C]You feel you need your
cup refilled
[Bm]Fill it out of mine[D]
we'll [Am]drop the defenses,
Pool our skill

[Verse 4]
Your [G]heart you're hiding
[Em]it's making you ill
You feel like you want [Am]to have your
sporran [G]refilled[Am][G][Em]
[Am]
Well, fill it [G]out of [Gsus4]mine[Am][G]
[Em]
[D]let the soulful water
Overspill)
and we will climb higher in time

[Verse 5]
I've [Am]been to the bottom
I've been on the train
I've [G]slept in the gutter
with my head in a drain
I've [C]been brutally proud
I've been mortally shamed
[Bm]But this is not a cr[D]ime
I'm just [Am]learning, my friends,
That it's all in the game
and [G]we will [Em]climb higher in
[Am]time[G][Gsus4]
[Am][G]
(Och!)

[Verse 6]
Climb higher in [Am]time[G]
climb higher in [Am]time

[Outro 1]
