Intro: Dm  Dm7  Bb/D

Dm        Dm7          Bb/D
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
Dm        Dm7           Bb/D
In a world of magnets and miracles
Dm        Dm7           Bb/D
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
Dm7       Dm7           Bb/D
The ringing of the division bell had begun

Dm7           C/Bb             A4             A
Along the long road and on down the causeway
Dm7           C/Bb             A4             A
Do they still meet there by the cut
Dm            Dm7              Bb/D
There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Dm            Dm7              Bb/D
Running before time took our dreams away
Dm            Dm7              Bb/D
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
Dm            Dm7              Bb/D
To a life consumed by slow decay

                 Dm    F/A   Am     Bb      A4
  The grass was greener
 A               Dm    C/E   F      Gm      Am    Bb
  The light was brighter
                 Dm    F/A   Am     Bb      A4
  With friends surrounded
 A               Dm    C/E   F      Gm      Am
  The nights of wonder

Dm        Dm7          Bb/D
Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
Dm        Dm7          Bb/D
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Dm        Dm7          Bb/D
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dm        Dm7          Bb/D
Dragged by the force of some inner tide
Dm7           C/Bb             A4             A
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
Dm7           C/Bb             A4             A        (solo)
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Dm        Dm7          Bb/D
Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
Dm        Dm7          Bb/D
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Dm        Dm7          Bb/D
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Dm        Dm7          Bb/D
though down this road we've been so many times

                 Dm    F/A   Am     Bb      A4
The grass was greener
 A               Dm    C/E   F      Gm      Am    Bb
The light was brighter
                 Dm    F/A   Am     Bb      A4
The taste was sweeter
 A               Dm    C/E   F      Gm      Am    Bb
The nights of wonder
                 Dm    F/A   Am     Bb      A4
With friends surrounded
 A               Dm    C/E   F      Gm      Am    Bb
The dawn mist glowing
                 Dm    F/A   Am     Bb      A4
The water flowing
 A               Dm    C/E   F      Gm      Am    Bb
The endless river

                 Dm    F/A   Am     Bb      A4 (solo)
Forever and ever
