[Fm]
Where in hell can you [Cm] go?
[Db] Far from the things that you [Ab] know
[Db] Far from the sprawl of [Ab] concrete that keeps crawling [Eb] its way
About a thousand [Fm] miles a day
Take one last look behind
[Cm] [Db]
Commit this to memory [Ab] and mind
I
[Db] don't miss this wasteland, [Ab] this terrible place
[Eb] When you leave, keep your heart off [Fm] your sleeve
[Ab] Motherland, cradle [Eb] me
Close [Db] my eyes, lullaby me [Ab] to sleep
Keep [Db] me safe, lie with [Ab] me
Stay beside me, don't [Eb] go
Don't you [Fm] go
Oh, my five and dialed [Cm] queen
[Db] Tell me what have [Ab] you seen
The [Db] lost and the avarice, [Ab] the bottomless [Eb] cavernous green
Is that what you [Fm] see?
Oh, [Ab]
motherland, cradle [Eb] me
Close [Db] my eyes, lullaby me [Ab] to sleep
Keep me [Db] safe, lie with [Ab] me
Stay beside me, don't [Eb] go
It's your [Db] happiness I want [Ab] most of all
And [Db] for that I'd [D] do anything [Eb] at all
Oh, mercy me
If you [Db] want the best of it
Oh, the [Ab] most of love
If
[Db] there's anything [D] that I can [Eb] do at all
[Fm]
[Cm]
[Db]
[Ab]
[Db]
[Ab]
[Eb]
[Fm]
Now come on shotgun [Cm] bride
What [Db] makes me envy [Ab] your life
[Db] [Ab] Faceless, nameless, innocent, blameless and [Eb] free
What's that [Fm] like to be?
Oh, [Ab] motherland, cradle [Eb] me
Close [Db] my eyes, lullaby me [Ab] to sleep
Keep me [Db] safe, lie with [Ab] me
Stay beside me, [Eb] don't go
Don't go
Oh, [Ab] motherland, cradle [Eb] me
Close [Db] my eyes, lullaby me [Ab] to sleep
Keep me [Db] safe, lie with [Ab] me
Stay beside me, [Eb] don't go
Don't go
[Fm] Don't go
Beautiful voice
[Gb]
[Fm] Oh, [Ab]
motherland, cradle [Eb] me
Close [Db] my eyes, lullaby me [Ab] to sleep
Keep [Db] me safe, lie with [Ab] me
Stay beside me, [Eb] don't go
Don't go
