Verse 1
C
Cross the bridge to climb that mountain,
G7
Find the streams for you to ford,
C Am
No easy creeks to magic fountains,
F G7
But hidden bends where threats accord,
C Am
Don’t step away from cliffs that challenge,
F G7
You must push and pull and wind your way up there!
C Am
Every little nook and cranny,
C Am
Brings the scrapes, there will be many,
F G7
But the victory’s sweet, and you’ll have your bowl of honey,
C F C
And you’d be a worthy winner! Winner! Winner!
Verse 2
C
Finally, you’ve won and made it,
G7
The peak’s too high but there you stood,
C Am
So hail yourself for you deserve it,
F G7
Oh savour the fruits but share the good,
C Am
Rest not too long because the rust lives,
F G7
You must push on every day and forever,
C Am
Cause your world doesn’t know never,
C Am
And passion chases discover,
F G7
Oh your victory’s sweet, and you have your bowl of honey,
C F Fm C
And you’d be a mighty winner! Winner! Winner!
Bridge
C Am
Oh Funny … how patience plays games,
C Am
Sunny and there comes rain,
F A
No warnings signs to see,
F Bb
No histories can teach …
Instrumental Bb C/ Bb C
