Intro: G6D2G6D2G6D2G6D2
And you know it's time to go
G6D2
through the sleet and driving snow
G6D2
across the fields of mourning to a
G6
light's in the distance
D2G6 D4 D2
And you hunger for the time
G6D2
time to heal, 'Desire', time
G6D2
and your earth moves beneath
G6D2
your own dream landscape
G6D2
Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run________
GG2GG2D2 D4 DG
I'll be there, I'll be there
GG2GG2
tonight, a high road, a high road out of here
D2 D4 DG
the city walls are all come down
the dust a smoke screen all around to see
faces ploughed like fields that once
gave no resistance
And we live by the side of the road
on the side of a hill as the valleys explode
dislocated, suffocated
the land grows weary of it's own
O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I hmm hmm
G6D2G6D2
O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I
G6D2G6D2

The wind will crack in wintertime
G6
this bomb-blast lightning waltz
D2G6
no spoken words, just a scream . . . yeah.... oh........ oh.....
D2G6D2G6 D4 DGG2GG2

D2 D4 DG
see the sky burning rain
GG2
she will die and live again tonight_______
GG2D2 D4 DGG6D2G6 D4 DG6D2G6 D4 D
And you heart beats so slow
through the rain and fallen snow
across the fields of morning
to a light that's in the distance
Oh don't sorrow, no don't weep
for tonight, at last
I am coming home
I am coming home
