Mansion Over The Hilltop

Elvis Presley


Tom: C

C                         F       C
I'm satisfied with just a cottage below
         G                   C
A little silver and a little gold
                           F             C
But in that city where the ransomed will shine
         G                      C
I want a gold one that's silver lined


[Chorus]
C          F                     C 
I’ve got a mansion just over the hilltop
               G                           C
In that bright land where we'll never grow old
C            F                         C
And some day yonder we will never more wander
            G                       C
But walk on streets that are purest gold


[Verse 2]
C                      F           C
Don't think me poor or deserted or lonely
           G                   C
I'm not discouraged I’m heaven bound
                     F             C
I'm but a pilgrim in search of the city
         G                    C
I want a mansion a harp and a crown


[Chorus]
C          F                     C 
I’ve got a mansion just over the hilltop
               G                           C
In that bright land where we'll never grow old
C            F                         C
And some day yonder we will never more wander
            G                       C
But walk on streets that are purest gold
