[E]
[Em]
[C] The [Em]
[C]
[Em] time I think most [D] clearly [C] The time I drift away
[G] Is [Em] on the bus ride Like [D] meanders
Up [C] these valleys of green crime
[G] I [Em] get to think about [D] what might have been And [C] what may yet come true
And [Em] I get to [G] pass the rainy mile [C] Thinking of you
And all the while, all the while [Bm] I still hear that call
To [C] the land of gold and poison That [Bm] beckons to all soul
[Em] Nothing changes here [G] very much [Bm] But [C] you used to say it never will
[G] [Em] The footer will fall on Friday [D] nights [C] And things get startled still
[D] Even [E] hours last [Em] week with [G] Billy Boy Bleeding, yeah, [C] and shielding, and [D] casualty
[G] [Em] Stare at those posters, we used [D] to laugh at Never, never lie
[C] Vomit me by [D] the sink [G] Well, there [C] was no need for those guys
[B] To hurt him so bad When all I [F#] had to do was knock him [Bm] down
But no [C] one asks too many questions [B] like That's anymore since you [F#] left this town
[Bm] And [G] tomorrow [D] brings another train Another [Bm] young phrase feels [C] alright
[G] But you're the one [D] I remember Up [Bm] these valleys of the green [C] of the night
[E] You [Em] used to talk about winners and losers all the time
[C] That was all there was As [E] if we were not [Em] the same blood [Bm] family
As [C] if we lived by different [F#] [G] laws You [Em] owe so much less to these [Bm] rain-splashed hills
[Em] Than you owe to your good [C] self [Em] It's true that the world has always got to [G] be
Something that seems to [C] happen somewhere else
But gosh, mate, don't you realise I [F#] still hear [Bm] that call
You [C] think you're so brave just to [G] go running To that which [F#] beckons to [Bm] us all
[G] And tomorrow brings [D] another [F#m] train Another young [Bm] phrase feels [C] alright
[G] But you're the one I [D] remember Up [Bm] these valleys of the green [C] of the night
[E]
Right [G] as he [D] looked behind you [Bm] As you were walking [C] away
Never once [G] did you wish [D] any of us well [Bm] Those who had chosen [C] to stay
And if [G] that's what it takes to [D] make it In the [B] place that you live [C] today
Then [G] I guess you'll never leave [D] these letters that I send
[Bm] Up the valleys of the green with [C] a cry Far
[A] east, [B] greedy, you'll [Em] cry
[N]
