Someday, we'll build a home on a hilltop high, you and I
D B7 Em7 A7/13- D B7 G
Shiny and new, a cottage that two can fill
Gdim D B7 G
And we'll be pleased to be called
A7 Em7 A7 D B7 G A7
The folks who live on the hill
D B7 Em7 G/B Edim A7 D B7 Em7 Edim
Someday, we may add a wing or two, a thing or two
D B7 Em7 A7/13- D B7 G
We will make changes, as any family will
Gdim D B7 G
But we will always be called
A7 Em7 A7 D
The folks who live on the hill

Our veranda will command a view of meadows green
Fdim F#7 Bm5-/7 Fdim E7 A7
The sort of view that seems to want to be seen
A7 Em7 A7 G/B A7/13- D B7 G
And when the kids grow up and leave us
G/B Edim A7 D B7 Em7 Edim
We'll sit and look at that same old view, just we two
D B7 Em7 G/B A7/13- D B7 G
Baby and Joe, who used to be Jack and Jill
Gdim D B7 G
The folks who like to be called
A7 F#7 B7 Em7
What they have always been called
B7/13- Em7 Edim A7 D
The folks who live on the hill
