PROGRESSIVE SONG PROJECT 2

12/08/2018 – 13/08/2018 (KP)

Up on the hill

E-A-Bm-E

Up on the hill
From where the mountains can be seen
Lives a farmer with his dream

E-A-Bm-E

Up on the hill
From where the mountains can be seen
Lives a farmer with a free will

E-A-Bm-E

He had a son
Who wanted a life upfront
He came down to the city
Paid a ransom to be free
Free from poverty
For a better life, for prosperity

E-A-Bm-E

Up on the hill
Since he has been gone
The farmer has been waiting for his son
Holding on to his dream
Holding on to his free will

E-A-Bm-E

One day the son came back
But the farmer had never been so sad
As the son came back in a casket
Never to live up to the farmer’s dream

E-A-Bm-E

Up on the hill
From where the mountains can be seen
The farmer still lives
But now he has no dreams
He has let go of his free will

E-A-Bm-E

Up on the hill
From where the mountains can be seen
Lived a farmer with his dream
Up on the hill
From where the mountains can be seen
Once lived a farmer with a free will

E-A-Bm-E

Up on the hill. Upon the hill
Up on the hill, Upon the hill
