D D
O'er the green mountains and
G G
O'er the green valleys
D D
I've walked through the country
A A
And felt me an age
D D
A people so strong
G A
They resist for so long
D D
The boundaries that hold them
D D
Children can sing of
G G
the coming of Spring
D D
A young man can't defend
A A
What he knows to be wrong
D D
Women so strong
G A
Needing peace for so long
D D
The homelands lay broken
D D
So the refugee walks such
G A
a long lonely road
D D
As the weak will die off
A A
Make the young people old
D D
To redeem a whole country
G A
For selling its soul
D D
To the bastions of war
Solo - chords as per 1st verse
D D
So the refugee walks such
G A
a long lonely road
D D
As the weak will die off
A A
Make the young people old
D D
To redeem a whole country
G A
For selling its soul
D D
To the bastions of war
D D G
Weep a fresh tear for the mass graves
G D
I fear won't be long
D A A
As the young perish fast to the land
D D G
Wiping the tears from the young
A D D
Gifted years, the millions lay down
D D
O'er the green mountains and
G G
O'er the green valleys
D D
I've walked through the country
A A
And felt me an age
D D
A people so strong
G A
They resist for so long
D D
The boundaries that hold them
