[G]
[Em] Across the [D] oceans, across the seas, [C] over forests [G] of blackened trees
breathe, [Em] to be by your [Gm] side

rains, [D] to be by your [Em] side
[C] Every mile [Em] and every year, [C] for everyone [G] a little tea
[Am] I [C] cannot [Em] explain this deep, [Am] will not even [Em] try
Into the night as [Bm] the stars fly, [C] across the borders [Bm] that divide
