FAmFAmIntro: No borderline, no borderline...
Piano - FAmFAmFAmFAmCDmGCDmG7CFG
Took a boat over Lake Geneva
AmEm/GDm7GF
It was raining all night long
D/GbE/AbAm
We were lucky and we saw no enemy
FCFC
And came from Switzerland, poor refugees
FCG
Far from the guns of war
FGCDmG7
We said goodbye to it all
CFG
They brought us in to a nurse's station
AmEm/GDm7GF
Half a mile behind the lines
D/GbE/AbAm
Oh Lord, how my heart was breaking
FCFC
To see the children, and the walking wounded
FCG
Hoping for a ticket home
FGCDmG7
And say goodbye to it all
CFG
I woke up on a cold blue morning
AmEm/GDm7GF
To see her there, standing right beside me
D/GbE/AbAm
Long years since I left her at the borderline
FCFC
And how she found me, I'd never know
FCG
But we decided there and then
FGC
To say goodbye to it all
GCF
To it all
CG/CCF/C
Say goodbye to it all
GCG/CCF/CG
Say goodbye to it all
CFG
Took a train from Paris to the ocean
AmEm/GDm7GF
Found a small hotel by the coast
D/GbE/AbAm
As we walked along the beaches of Normandy
FCFC
We came to Juno, Omaha and Gold
FCG
And whispered a prayer for the boys
FGCDmG7
Who said goodbye to it all
CFG
Now we've got our own place by the water
AmEm/GDm7GF
And I have a job in the old hotel
D/GbE/AbAm
She is ready and she's hoping for a daughter
FCFC
Well I don't mind, we've made our choice
FCG
We've got all the time in the world
FGC
We said goodbye to it all
FGC
We said goodbye to it all
CG/CCFCG/CCF
'Bye to it all
GCG/CCF
Say goodbye to it all
GCG/CCF
Say goodbye to it all
GCG/CCF
Say goodbye to it all
GCG/CCF
Say goodbye to it all
GCG/CCF
Say goodbye
GCG/CCF
Say goodbye...
