The Sound of Music 

9   -10   9   -9   8

The Hills are alive  

-8     7     -7     -6     -7     -7

with the sound of music 

7     -8     7     -7     -6    

With songs they have sung 

-7     7     -8     8     -9

 for a thousand years 

9     -0     9     -9     8    

The hills fill my heart  

-8     7     -7     -6     -7     -7

with the sound of music 

-7     7     -8     8     -9    

My heart wants to sing  

9     -10     -7     7     7

every song it hears 

7     7     -7     -7#     -6    

My heart wandts to beat 

-6     -6     -7b     -7     -7     7

like the wings of the Birds 

7     8     7     -7     -6     -7#     -7     7    

that rise from the lake to the trees. 

-7     -6     -6     -6     -7     -7     -7     7    

My heart wants to sigh like a chime 

7     9     8     7     -8     -8     -8     -8

 that flies from a church on a breeze 

7     -6     -6     -6     -7    

To laugh like a brook  

-7     -7     7     7     8     7     -7     -6     -7

when it trips and falls over stones on 

-7     7     7     8     7     8     -7    

 its way, to sing through the night  

-7     -7  7     -8     8     -9#     9     -10     9    

like a Lark who is learning to pray. 

9     -10     9     -9     8

 I go to the hills 

-8     7     -7     -6     -7     -7    

When my heart is lonely.  

7  -8     7     -7     -6     -7     7     -8     8     -9

I Know I will hear what I’ve heard before 

-9#     9     8     -9#     9     8     -9    

My heart will be blessed with the 

9     9     9     7     7     -9     -7     -7     7

 sound of Music and I’ll sing once more
