[Verso 1]


  G                   D 
I climbed the Redwood Hill 
      Em         B7 
'Twas on a rainy day 
   C              G 
To rise above the throng 
    A7                            D 
And talk with Mother Nature for a while 


[Verso 2]


    G              D 
She told me of her love 
        Em              B7 
For the children in her trust 
    C               G 
And of her grave concern 
        A7       C              G 
For the likes of you and me and us

Em 
Crying though she was 
         G 
She did speak these tender words 
     C             Am 
"The things that I am 
C                           D 
 I could not change for any man" 


[Verso 3]


  G                D 
I tried to comfort her 
    Em                B7 
But she would not be still 
    C                G 
And how the rain did fall 
     A7                C                G 
As I found my way back down the Redwood Hill

I'll not forget the day

When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hill
