A mountain of love
A mountain of love
You should be ashamed
We used to be a mountain of love
But you just changed your name

Way down below there's a half a million people
Somewhere there's a church with a big tall steeple
Inside a church there's an altar filled with flowers
Wedding bells are ringing that should have been ours
That's why I'm so lonely
My dreams gone above
High on a mountain of love.

High on a mountain of love. (Riff 2)
High on a mountain of love. (Riff 2)
High on a mountain of love  (Riff2)  (fade) 
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
