Written by Richard Rodgers Oscar Hammerstein II
F E
The hills are alive with the sound of music
F6 Bb C7
With songs they have sung for a thousand years
F E
The hills fill my heart with the sound of music
F Bb C C7 F
My heart wants to sing every song it hears
Bb Bbdim
My heart wants to beat like the wings of the birds
Bb Bbdim F
that rise from the lake to the trees
Bb Bbdim
My heart wants to sigh like a chime that flies
G7 G5-/7 C
From a church on a breeze
Bb Bbdim F
To laugh like a brook when it trips and falls
Bb Bbdim 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
C7 F
I go to the hills when my heart is lonely
Bb Bbm
I know I will hear what IŽve heard before
F Am Bb Gm7
My heart will be blessed with the sound of music
Am C7 F
And IŽll sing once more
