Mountain Take Me Under

Verse 1

The furnace hums beneath the ridge tonight

I count the cracks along the cellar wall

Cold iron sings a low and mournful tune

My hands still smell of sulfur and of rain

Nothing grows where I have laid my burdens down

Pre-Chorus

So I wait

I wait for the stone to speak

Chorus

Mountain take me under

Mountain take me slow

Mountain take me under

Bury what I know

Post-Chorus

(Under)

(Under)

Verse 2

My brother left a lantern on the porch

It burned for seven winters then it died

I never went to fetch it back inside

The rust has eaten through the handle now

And I have grown too tired to pretend

Pre-Chorus

So I wait

I wait for the smoke to clear

Chorus

Mountain take me under

Mountain take me slow

Mountain take me under

Bury what I know

Post-Chorus

(Under)

(Under)

Bridge

Weathered hands and worried minds

Wandering the wasted years

Weathered hands and worried minds

Wandering

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Mountain take me under

Mountain take me slow

Mountain take me under

Bury what I know

Post-Chorus

(Slow)

(Slow)
