Up to the Mountain (Cover)

This song was written and recorded by Patty Griffin.I loved it the first time I heard it. Now you guys with guitar skills-- don't listen too hard to that part because it was ME playing!!! Something I rarely do, but since I couldn't find a cover guitar of it, I just did it myself!
Hope you enjoy, Here are the lyrics:
I went up to the mountain
Because you asked me to
Up over the clouds
To where the sky was blue
I could see all around me
Everywhere
I could see all around me
Everywhere

Sometimes I feel like
I've never been nothing but tired
And I'll be working
Till the day I expire
Sometimes I lay down
No more can I do
But then I go on again
Because you ask me to

Some days I look down
Afraid I will fall
And though the sun shines
I see nothing at all
Then I hear your sweet voice, oh
Oh, come and then go, come and then go
Telling me softly
You love me so

The peaceful valley
Just over the mountain
The peaceful valley
Few come to know
I may never get there
Ever in this lifetime
But sooner or later
It's there I will go
Sooner or later
It's there I will go
