Highlands (Song of Ascent) [Acoustic]

INTRO:
[Em] [D] [C] [G]
[Em] [D] [C] [G]

VERSE:
O [Em]how high wo[D]uld I climb mountains
If th[C]e mountains we[G]re where You hide
O [Em]how far I'd sca[D]le the valleys
If Y[C]ou graced t[G]he other side

VERSE 2:
O [Em]how long hav[D]e I chased rivers
From [C]lowly seas t[G]o where they rise
Agains[Em]t the rush of [D]grace descending
From[C] the sourc[G]e of its supply

PRE-CHORUS:
'Cause [C]in the h[D]ighland[Em]s and the heartache
You're n[G]either mor[D]e or less inclined
I wo[C]uld sea[D]rch an[Em]d stop at nothing
You're [C]just not that hard to find

CHORUS:
[G] I will praise You on the mountain
[D] And I will praise You when [Em]the mountain's in my way
You're[D] the summit w[C]here my feet are
So I will praise You in the[G] valleys all the same
No less God with[D]in the shadows
No less faithful when th[Em]e night leads me astray
You're[D] the heaven where my heart is
[C] In the highlands and the [Em]heart[D]ache[C] all [G]the same

VERSE 3:
O [Em]how far benea[D]th Your glory
Does [C]Your kindne[G]ss extend the path
From wh[Em]ere Your fe[D]et rest on the sunrise
To whe[C]re You swee[G]p the sinner's past

VERSE 4:
O [Em]how fast would [D]You come running
If just [C]to shadow me [G]through the night
Trac[Em]e my steps thr[D]ough all my failure
And w[C]alk me ou[G]t the other side

PRE-CHORUS 2:
For who[C] cou[D]ld dare [Em]ascend that mountain
That val[G]leyed hill [D]called Calvary
But for [C]the [D]One I c[Em]all Good Shepherd
Who [C]like a lamb was slain for me

CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
Whatev[Em]er I walk throu[D]gh, wherever I am
Your name [C]can move m[G]ountains wherever I stand
And if eve[Em]r I walk through [D]the valley of death
I'll sing throu[C]gh the shado[G]ws my song of ascent

Whatev[Em]er I walk throu[D]gh, wherever I am
Your name [C]can move m[G]ountains wherever I stand
And if eve[Em]r I walk through [D]the valley of death
I'll sing throu[C]gh the shad[G]ows my son[Em]g of a[D]sce[C]nt, [G]my song of ascent
My son[Em]g of as[D]cent[C][G]

PRE-CHORUS 3:
From[C] the [D]graves[Em]t of all valleys
Com[G]e the pastur[D]es we call grace
A mi[C]ghty ri[D]ver fl[Em]owing upwards
Fro[C]m a deep but empty grave

CHORUS:
[G] I will praise You on the mountain
[D] And I will praise You when [Em]the mountain's in my way
You're[D] the summit w[C]here my feet are
So I will praise You in the[G] valleys all the same
No less God with[D]in the shadows
No less faithful when th[Em]e night leads me astray
You're[D] the heaven where my heart is
[C] In the highlands and the [G]heartache all the same
