Verse 1
C -2nd fret
D              Em            A7
I'm not smart enough for this life I've been livin',
G                  Em                        A
A little bit slow for the pace of the dream.
Bm               G
It's not I'm ungrateful for all I've been given;
Em               A                           D
But nevertheless, just the same...

Verse 2
D                    Em      A7
I wish to my soul, I was back in Mon-tana,
G                    Em      A
High on my mountain and deep in the snow.
Bm               G             Em                   A              D
Up in my cabin, over the valley, Under the blankets with you.

Chorus
Bm            G           A          D    A
O------------ O------ ver the ocean from here.
Bm                G         A         D            A
O------------ O-------ver the mountains from there.

Verse 3
D           Em        A7
Who can imagine the scale of the forces
G              Em               A
That pushed this old mountain range up in the sky?
Bm                   G                
Tec-tonic creation, e-rosion, mutation;
Em          A                      D
Somethin' to pleasure God's eye.

Verse 4
D                          Em            A7
The world is a wonder of lightnin' and thunder,
G                Em                       A
And green of the ground as we fall from the sky.
Bm                 G
The old and new faces, the tribes and the races...
Em              A       D
Thousands of places to try.

Chorus
Bm         G           A            D           A
O------------ O------ ver the ocean from here.
Bm          G           A              D               A
O------------ O-------ver the mountains from there.

Verse 5
D            Em           A             Bm
One sits and waits while the other one wanders,
G              Em           A
And squanders his time with a life on the road.
Bm                            G
Down from the mountain, a-cross the wide ocean,
Bm                A                     D
The world is in motion and cannot be slowed.

Verse 6
D                 Em             A7
Enough for today... the de-mands of the moment,
G                  Em                   A
The thing on my mind is the work in my hand.
Bm                         G
Wood for the woodstove and water for coffee,
Em              A        D
Somethin' I can still under-stand.

Verse 7
D                      Em        A7
We got a few friends but not many neighbors,
G                     Em                    A
The trip into town takes us most of the day.
Bm                    G
And after, "Hello", and "it's sure good to see you",
Emm                A      D
It seems like there's nothin' to say.

Outro
Bm            G              A            D
O------------ O------ ver the ocean from here.
