E                      A
Oh, I’m headed to the mountains
E                  A
I’ll be back in a week or two
F#m               B                 E
Don’t you try to reach me 'cause I won’t
             A
pick up for you
F#m                            B7
I’ve got some things I need to do

Oh I’m headed to the mountains
Where the air is sweet and new
Don’t you try to reach me 'cause
I don’t want to talk to you
I’ve got some thinking to do

Chorus:
E                  A
I’m trying to let go
                  B           A
I think it could help being alone
                E
And I’m trying not to let you make me cry
       A
I’ve spilled too many tears
            B                 A
And I think I deserve to be alone

     F#m              B                E
And don’t you try to reach me while I pick myself
        A
up and go
F#m                       B7
I’ve got to do this on my own
F#m                       B7
I need to build myself a home

Oh, I’m headed to the mountains
The only place I feel at peace
And I knew you’d come after me so
I threw away your keys
But I know you'd never go when I say leave
I’m headed to the mountains... don’t wait up for me
