Dm (verse) Dm C Em every time I shed tears Dm C Em in the last past years Dm C Em when I pass through the hills (chorus) A C oh, what images return Dm C oh I yearn Dm C for the roots of the woods B A D C that origin of all my strong and strange moods Am Dm C I lost something in the hills C G Em I lost something in the hills (verse) I grew up in declivities others grow up in cities where first love and soul takes rise there where times in my life when I felt mad and deprived and only the slopes gave me hope (chorus) Em A C Dm when I pass through the leg high grass I shall die C Dm C under the jasmin I shall die Dm C under the elder tree B A D C and I need not try to prepare for a new coming day C G F C where is it that fills the deepness I feel B G Em A You will say I'm not Robin the Hood C B C B C But how could I hide from top to foot Dm C that I lost something in the hills C G Em I lost something in the hills Am Dm C Oh I lost something in the hills (verse) Now I lean on my window sill and I cry, though it's silly and I'm dreaming of off and away (chorus) A C Dm C oh I know further west these hills exist Dm C Dm C marked by apple trees marked by a straight brook B A D C that leads me wherever I want it to Dm C well I lost something in the hills C G Em I lost something in the hills Am Dm C oh, I lost something in the hills
