Intro

haven't figured it out yet, sorry ]

Verse 1

]

 The time I think most clearly

 The time I drift away

 Is on the busride that meanders

 Up these valleys of green and grey

 I get to think about what might have been

 And what may yet come true

 And I get to pass these rainy miles

 Thinking of you

Bridge 1

]

 And all the while, all the while

 I still hear that call

 From the land of gold and poison

 That beckons to us all

Verse 2

]

Nothing changes here very much

You used to say it never will

The pubs are all full on friday nights

And things get started still

You spend hours last week with Billy-boy

Bleeding, yeah queueing in casualty

Stare at those posters we used to laugh at

In heaven neverland, palmtrees by the sea

Bridge 2

I'm not quite sure of the chords here, but

anyway, it's possible to sing along.]

 There was no need for these guys to hurt him so bad

 When all they had to do was knock him down

 But noone asks too many questions, not anymore

 Since you left this town

Chorus

]

 And tomorrow brings another train

 Another young brave steals away

 But you're the one I remember

 From these valleys of the green and the grey

Verse 3

]

You used to talk about winners and losers all the time

As if that was all there was

As if we were not of the same blood family

As if we live by different laws

Do you owe so much less to these rain swept hills

Than you owe to your good self

Is it true that the world has always got to be

Something that seems to happen somewhere else

Bridge 3

Same as Bridge 2 ]

Oh, for god sake why don't you realize

That I still hear that call

Do you think you're so brave to just start running

To that which beckons to us all

Chorus

]

And tomorrow ...

[ Instr. break: Just play Dm at the right moments, then start

to shout ...]

[ End: Chords of Chorus ]

 Oooh, not for one second did you look behind you

 When you were walking away

 Never once did you wish any of us well

 Those who had chosen to stay

 And if that's what it takes to make it

 In the place where you live today

 Then I guess you'll never read these letters that I've sent

 From the valleys of the green and the grey

 Valleys of the green and the grey

That's the way it should go I think, at least to me it

sounds pretty good.
