Banjo Dan - "I'll Take The Hills"

I'll Take the Hills

Written by Dan Linder played in the key of F major

(D)When the labors done

I stand and listen to the silence all aro(G)und

There's not a so(D)und

In the setting sun

Only the robins song drifting through the tr(G)ees

On a gentle bre(A)eze

I'll take the h(G)ills and the vallys full of su(D)nshine

I'll take the lo(A)ng days working with my ha(D)nds

I'll take the fi(G)elds and the forest in the mo(D)onlight

I'll take my cha(G)nces li(A)ving from the la(D)nd (tag) G A D

There's an ebb and fl(D)ow

And a rythm to the seasons of the ye(G)ar

My choice is cle(D)ar

For ive come to know

When you work within the natural scheme of thi(G)ngs

What joy it bri(A)ngs

I'll take the h(G)ills and the vallys full of su(D)nshine

I'll take the lo(A)ng days working with my ha(D)nds

I'll take the fi(G)elds and the forest in the mo(D)onlight

I'll take my cha(G)nces li(A)ving from the la(D)nd

(guitar solo over verse chords)

(fiddle solo over chorus chords)

To each his o(D)wn

Let the great ambitions drive the great men o(G)n

From dawn to da(D)wn

I'll stay at home

And I'll just tend my little peaceful plot of ea(G)rth

For all its wo(A)rth

I'll take the h(G)ills and the vallys full of su(D)nshine

I'll take the lo(A)ng days working with my ha(D)nds

I'll take the fi(G)elds and the forest in the mo(D)onlight

I'll take my cha(G)nces li(A)ving from the la(D)nd
