Mansion over the hilltop    (video)

 

    G - G7 - C - F - C

 

                  C           - F                              C

1. I'm satisfied with       just a cottage below,

                G                          C

    a little silver, and a little gold.

                       C   - F                                            C

    But in that city,      where the ransomed will shine,

                    G                              C       - F - C

    I want a gold one, that's silver lined.

 

 C7              F                              C

I've got a mansion just over the hilltop,

                      G               - G7                            C    - C7

in that bright land where         we'll never grow old.

                          F                                      C

And someday yonder, we'll never more wander,

                        G            - G7                   C     - F - C

but walk on streets that         are purest gold.

 

                               C       - F                    C

2. Don't think me poor or      deserted or lonely,

                        G                                C

    I'm not discouraged, I'm heaven bound.

                     C       - F                             C

    I'm but a pilgrim       in search of this city,

                     G                                   C      - F - C

    I want a mansion, a harp, and a crown.
