A mountain high, a valley low
          D       G      D
In what direction will I go
          D            
Will I be up, will I be down
          D       G         D
Will I be lost or will I be found
           D    A       D 
A mountain high, valley low

I was born just west of Memphis, over in Arkansas
  D
I had to leave because I was in was in trouble with the law
         D    A       D

I never learned the lesson of early rise and shine
  D
I spent my late nights drinkin' whiskey, beer and wine
         D    A       D
Mountain high, valley low


Chorus:
           D
A mountain high, a valley low
          D       G      D
In what direction will I go
          D            
Will I be up, will I be down

Will I be lost or will I be found
           D    A       D

Four things to a drifter, bein' one I know
Money and booze, the women you lose, and nowhere left to go
Mountain high, valley low


Chorus:

A mountain high, a valley low
          D       G      D
In what direction will I go
          D

Will I be lost or will I be found
