Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
And you know it's time to go
through the sleet and driving snow
across the fields of mourning to a
light's in the distance
And you hunger for the time
time to heal, 'Desire', time
and your earth moves beneath
your own dream landscape
Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run________
I'll be there, I'll be there
tonight, a high road, a high road out of here
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
O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I
Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run, and still we run, we run and don't look back
I'll be there, I'll be there tonight tonight tonight
I'll be there tonight, I believe. I'll be there so high (land),
I'll be there tonight, tonight____________
O come away, I sing I say, um ha, o come away oh say.
The wind will crack in wintertime
this bomb-blast lightning waltz
no spoken words, just a scream . . . yeah.... oh........ oh.....
tonight we'll build a bridge across the sea and land
see the sky burning rain
she will die and live again tonight_______
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
