[Am] _ _ _ was sitting in a station [C] bar somewhere [D] in [Am] America, _ _ [C] when an old man [Bm] came to me.
[Am] He said, can I sit next to [C] you?
And I had [D] nothing else to [Am] do.
_ So [C] he sat down and [B] drank a beer.

[C] _ _ [D] _ _ [Am] told me about the rocks and [C] hills above the [D] autumn [Am] and it's true.
_ About the valleys [Bm] and the rain.

[C] He said with [Bm] lonely eyes, [Am] they once had worked upon the [C] land, but now it's [D] in some stranger's [Am] hands. _ _
[C] He said with [Bm] angry eyes, [F] the more he spoke, [G] the more he _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[G] cried.
I just had to [Am] say, do you [G] know the land of [Em] green, its [F] rocks and stormy [Am] sea?
Do you [G] know the island [Em] of the rain?

[G] _ _ [Dm] _ [Am] Even though the bar was full of [C] noise, the man [D] began to lower his [Am] voice _ [C] and stood up [Bm] without a word.
[E] Although it is five years [C] ago, I swear that [D] I exactly [E] know _ _ [G] every word that he had [F] said.
I still can see [G] his trembled [F] hands as he told [G] the story about the slave.
