Intro:
G D G D G D G D

And you know it's time to go
              G                            D

through the sleet and driving snow

                       G                          D
across the fields of mourning to a

                 G
light's in the distance
D                         G  D

And you hunger for the time
            G                          D

time to heal, 'Desire', time
                G                             D

and your earth moves beneath
                 G                        D

your own dream landscape
             G                  D

Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run
G                                D G

I'll be there, I'll be there
G

tonight, a high road, a high road out of here
        D                                                     G

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
G                                   D               G                         D

O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I
G                              D                  G                         D

Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run, and still we run, we run and don't look back
G                                    D                                   G

I'll be there, I'll be there tonight tonight tonight
G                                                          D

I'll be there tonight, I believe. I'll be there so high (land),
                 C

I'll be there tonight, tonight
                                   D                   G       D

O come away, I sing I say, um ha, o come away oh say.
G                      D                         G D

The wind will crack in wintertime
                               G

this bomb-blast lightning waltz
D                       G

no spoken words, just a scream yeah oh oh
D               G               D  G                D          G

tonight we'll build a bridge across the sea and land
D                                    G

see the sky burning rain
G

she will die and live again tonight
G                                          D G G D G D G D G 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
