Mountain People

B

[Verse 1]
E
They don't care about
E
you and me
E
Obviously
G#m    F#m
No not us
                   A
We're the mountain people

[Verse 2]
E
So far away from those
E
Tree lined streets
E
Look so neat
E
Not for us
G#m    F#m
No fat chance
                    A
We're the mountain people

[Chorus]
F#m                 B
They seek us in the valley
F#m                    B
They'll seek us on the plain
F#m                   B
They own the milk and runny honey
F#m                       B
And they're not quite the same

[Verse 3]
B
And we
E
Live together under
E
Fantasy
E
Oak trees
E
In the dark
E
We make sparks
G#m   F#m
So unique
                   A
We're the mountain people

[Verse 4]
E
Curiosity comes to
E
Plead with me
E
Vanity
Continues after the ad
E
Strangles me
E
Pulls me
G#m       F#m
Shakes me down
                   A
We're the mountain people

[Chorus]
F#m                 B
They seek us in the valley
F#m                    B
They'll seek us on the plain
F#m                   B
They own the milk and runny honey
F#m                       B
And they're not quite the same

[Verse 5]
B
Because
E
They don't care about
E
You and me
E
Obviously
E
Hand me down
E
Culture
E
Waiting for the vulture
G#m     F#m
Yes yes yes
                   A
We're the mountain people

[Verse 6]
E
Hibernation comes so early
E
This year
E
Dig the peat
E
Pile it high
E
Let it dry
E
One last chance at ignorance
G#m    F#m
No fat chance
                   A
We're the mountain people

[Instrumental]
C#m F# (x4)

[Verse 7]
B
One short blast was followed
B
By two
B
Longer ones
B
Short blast
B
Long blast
B
Coming for the outcast
B
Put me in a deep freeze
D#m      C#m
And I'll sneeze
                   E
We're the mountain people

[Verse 8]
B
From a distance I can see them
B
Pacing
B
Upstream
B
Slowly
B
Ruthlessly
B
Onwards
B
Steady
B
Nets and
B
Cages
B
Open
B
Ready
B
Long term memory
B
Soothes me
B
Worry
B
Take me
B
Break me
B
Any way you fancy
B
Deep freeze put me in it and I'll sneeze
B
Deep freeze put me in it and I'll sneeze
B
Deep freeze put me in it and I'll sneeze
B
Deep freeze put me in it
