The  Hills are alive with the sound of Music, With
F6                                  Bb/D  C7
songs they have sung for a thousand years,    the
F                                     E/F
hills fill my heart with the sound of music, My
F/A            Bb/D       Am/C   C7  F       Bb  F
heart wants to sing every song      it hears
[Section 1]
N.C              Bb/D         Bbdim7        F/A        F/C
My heart want to beat like the wings  of the birds that rise  
N.C      Bb/D Bbdim7 F/A   F/C
from the lake to the trees....., My
Bb/D           Bbdim7       F/A        F/C
heart wants to sigh like a chime that flies , from the
G7/D   Db7-5 C7       
church on a  breeze.
   Bb/D        Bbdim7        F/A       F/C
To laugh like a brook when it trips and falls, over
Bb/D   Bbdim7   F/A   F/C
stones on  its way.....to..
[Section 2]
  Dm   Dm6         Am

Dm          G7         C
lark who is learning to pray.
[Chorus]
    Fadd9                             E/F
I...go for the hills when my heart is lonely, I
F6/9             
know I will hear, what I've heard 
Bb/D   Bbm/Db   
before,       
Db7-5 F/C                  Am/C                       Bb     Bb/A    Gm7
My    heart will be blessed ....with the sound of music

And I'll sing, once more
