[Verse] These [F#] mist covered [E] moun- [F#] tains Are home now for [B] me [Bsus4 - B] But my [D#m/A#] home is the [G#m] low [D#m] lands And always will [E] be [F#sus4] Some- day you'll re- [G#m] turn [D#m] to Your valley and your [E] farms ([C#m][F#sus4]) And you'll [F#] no longer [G#m] burn To be [E] brothers in [F#sus4] arms [F#]
Through these [F#] fields of de- [E] struc- [F#] tion Baptisms of [B] fire [Bsus4 – B] I've [D#m/A#] watched all your [G#m] suffe- [D#m] ring As the battles raged [E] higher [F#sus4] And though they did hurt [G#m] me so [D#m] bad In the fear and a- [E] larm ([C#m][F#sus4]) You did not de- [G#m] sert me My [E] brothers in [F#] arms
[G#m][E][C#m][E] [G#m][E][C#sus2][C#sus2] [G#m]
There's so [F#] many different [G#m] worlds [F#] So [B] many different [E] suns [F#sus4] And [F#] we have just one [G#m] world [F#] But we [B] live in different [E] ones
Now the sun's gone to [E] hell [F#] And the moon's riding [B] high [Bsus4 – B] Let me [D#m/A#] bid your fare- [G#m] well [D#m] Everyman has to [E] die [F#sus4] But its [F#] written in the [G#m] star- [D#m] light And every line on your [E] palm ([C#m][F#sus4]) We're [F#] fools to make [G#m] war On our [E] brothers in [F#sus4] arms [F#]
