 Intro: G6  D2  G6  D2  G6  D2  G6  D2
 
 And you know it's time to go
         G6                   D2
 
 through the sleet and driving snow
                  G6                D2
 
 across the fields of mourning to a
            G6              
 light's in the distance
 D2             G6       D4 D2
 
 And you hunger for the time
         G6                  D2
 
 time to heal, 'Desire', time
         G6                  D2
 
 and your earth moves beneath
          G6                 D2
 
 your own dream landscape
          G6        D2
 
 Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run________
 G      G2 G   G2            D2 D4 D Gii
 
 I'll be there, I'll be there
 G             G2   G        G2
 
 tonight, a high road, a high road out of here
        D2  D4           D                Gii
 
 the city walls are all come down
 the dust a smoke screen all around to see
 faces ploughed like fields that once
 gave no resistance
 
 And we live by the side of the road
 on the side of a hill as the valleys explode
 dislocated, suffocated
 the land grows weary of it's own
 
 O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I  hmm hmm
 G6                 D2           G6                 D2
 
 O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I
 G6                 D2           G6                 D2
 
 Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run, and still we run, we run and don't look back
 G      G2 G   G2            D2       D4               D                     G
 
 I'll be there, I'll be there tonight    tonight      tonight
 G             G2   G        G2                D2  D4   D     D4
 
 I'll be there tonight, I believe.  I'll be there so high (land),
         C7
 
 I'll be there tonight, tonight____________
                          D     D2     G6  D2
 
 O come away, I sing  I say, um ha,  o come away oh say.
 G6                D2                G6 			D2
 
 The wind will crack in wintertime
                    G6 
 
 this bomb-blast lightning waltz
 D2	        G6
 
 no spoken words, just a scream . . . yeah.... oh........ oh..... 
 D2        G6            D2  G6        D4  D   G   G2     G   G2
 
 tonight we'll build a bridge across the sea and land
   D2          D4	      D       		    Gii
 
 see the sky burning rain
 G              G2
 
 she will die and live again tonight_______
    G   	         G2           D2  D4 D Gii  G6  D2  G6  D4 D  G6  D2  G6  D4 D
 
 And you heart beats so slow
 through the rain and fallen snow
 across the fields of morning
 to a light that's in the distance
 Oh don't sorrow, no don't weep
 for tonight, at last
 I am coming home
 I am coming home
