(No chord)                A 
I'm gonna take that mountain 
A 
I was born a stubborn soul, ain't afraid of the great unknown 
G             D                 A 
Or a winding road that's all uphill 
A 
This is just a stumblin' block, intimidatin' wall of rock 
        G                  D              E 
If you think this broken heart will break my will 
 
A                    G 
I'm gonna take that mountain 
       D             G   D   A 
Ain't nothin' gonna slow me down 
           A             G 
And there ain't no way around it 
       D              G    D   A   
Gonna leave it level with the ground 
                  E         E         G 
Ain't just gonna cross it, climb it, fight it 
D               A 
I'm gonna take that mountain 
 
 
A 
It's overwhelming lookin' up, and knowing it's the challenge of 
G                D             A 
Me against this heartache to survive  
A 
I may slip and I may fall, but even if I have to crawl 
      G             D              E 
I'll break through to the healing side  
 
 
CHORUS 
 
 
Instrumental: A  G  D  G-D-A  (x2) 
 
                  E         E         G         D 
Ain't just gonna cross it, climb it, fight it, yeah 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
A 
I was born a stubborn soul, this is just a stumblin' block 
A 
I'm gonna ta--ke that mountain
