[Verse]
Db
Rough seas might pull me
 under and dark clouds
 might dim my days
    Gb
But there's always bright
 tomorrows when I close
 my eyes and say
Db
"Remember how you've made
it through the fire
                    Ab
Remember how you've come
 so far
Gb
An unstoppable force
of nature yeah,
that's what you are"

[Pre-Chorus]
Bbm
I know all that
 I have lost
    Ab
Has given me the purpose of
Eb            Ebm
Conquering my pain
 through love
  Gb
I sing this hymn
to rise above
[Chorus]
Db
 I am a mountain and
 down in the valley below
                 Gb
Is all that I've overcome,
 all that I've overcome
woah
Db
 I am a mountain and down
 in the valley below
                 Gb
Is all that I've overcome
All that I've
             Db
oh-oh-overcome-ome
            Gb
Oh-oh-overcome-ome.

I'm a fighter,
it's like
 I was born to be one.

[Verse]
Db
 Whatever life may throw,
 I'll pass the test.
 Whatever fate might
dream upon me next
Gb
 I'll stand with
 my head to the sky.
Unshaken by thunder and
 winds and the tide
