  3   4   5
When I'm down
 4  -4  4    4    4  4 3
And oh my soul's so weary.
  4    5  -5  6 
When troubles come
 6   6  -6    6  5    -4  
And my heart burdened be,
 6  -6 -7   7
Then I am still
 6   -7   -6   6  -5 6 5
And wait here in, in silence,
 3 6  -5    5   3   5 -4 4    -3   4
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

 6    -6  -7  7
You raise me up,
 6 -7 -6   6   -5   6   5
So I can stand on mountains.
 6   -8    7  7
You raise me up
 6  -7  -6   6 -5  6
To walk on stormy seas
 6  -6 -7   7
And I am strong,
  6  -7-6  6  -5  6    7
When I am on your shoulders.
 4    6   -5  5
You raise me up,
 4   5   -4  4  -3  4
To more than I can be,
 4    6   -5  5
You raise me up,
 4   5   -4  4 -3   4
To more than I can be.
