             Colonel   Forbin stared up at the mountain
        B
        And wiped away the beads of sweat
        E
        That glistened on his brow
        F#m7                                          G9 C#6
        His tired feet were buried in the   quagmire
        G#
        And his bloodshot eyes were all that lay between him
        A#                                G#
        and fullfillment of his vow

        G#    C#m7                                                F#m7
        And he felt his fingers wrap around the knotted root
        B
        and he pulled his body upwards
        E
        to a sea green mossy boulder
        F#m7                                                   G9 C#6
        and he dragged his weary carcass up the mountain
        F#m7                    G
        And he climb so slowly
        F#m7            G
        and he climb so slowly
        A   F   F#m7   A
        Ahead-----?
        A   F   F#m7   A
              Ahead-----?


                            C#7
        Suddenly he heard the crack of thunder
        D                       G
        And the rocks began to crumble overhead
        A                       C#7
        and tumbled down the mountain to the
        D                            G
        dismal swampthat lay beneath the jagged cliffs
        A                       C#7
        through which his path had led
        D                             G
        and the earth began to quake before his eyes
        A                               C#m7
        and the mighty mountain change before his eyes
        D                               G
        and he stood admist a sea of dust and rocks and stones
        A                       C#m7
        cascading down the mountain
        D                               G
        and a thousand birds were heading fo the sky

        A                       Bm7
        and the scared creed will be yours
        D                       G
        and if you wait until tomorrow
        F#m7
        the sacred creed will be yours
        G
        to devour
        F#m7
        yours
        G
        to seize
        A    F   F#m7  A
        and to obey----?
        A    F   F#m7  A
        obey------------?
