The hills are alive with the sound of music,

With songs they have sung for a thousand years.

The hills fill my heart with the sound of music.

My heart wants to sing ev'ry song it hears.

from the lake to the trees.
Bb C Dm F
My heart wants to sigh like a chime that flies
G G7 C
from a church on a breeze,

to laugh like a brook when it trips and falls
Bb C F
over stones on its way,
Dm Dm6 Am Dm G7 C
to sing through the night, like a lark who is learning to pray.

I go to the hills when my heart is lonely

My heart will be blessed with the sound of music

and I'll sing once more.
