|Em |Bm

The time I think most clearly

|Am |Em

The time I drift away

|G |D

Is on the busride that meanders

|C |D (C - whatever you want...)

Up these valleys of green and grey

|Em |Bm

I get to think about what might have been

|Am |Em

And what may yet come true

|G |D

And I get to pass these rainy miles

|C |C

Thinking of you

|C |C

And all the while, all the while

|Bm |Bm

I still hear that call

|C |C

>From the land of gold and poison

|Bm |Bm

That beckons to us all

Nothing changes here very much

You used to say it never will

The pubs are all full on friday nights

And things get started still

You spend hours last week with Billy-boy

Bleeding, yeah queueing in casualty

Stare at those posters we used to laugh at

In heaven neverland, palmtrees by the sea

There was no need for these guys to hurt him so bad

When all they had to do was knock him down

But noone asks too many questions, not anymore

Since you left this town

|G |D

And tomorrow brings another train

|Bm |C

Another young brave steals away

|G |D

But you're the one I remember

|Bm |C

>From these valleys of the green and the grey

You used to talk about winners and losers all the time

As if that was all there was

As if we were not of the same blood family

As if we live by different laws

Do you owe so much less to these rain swept hills

Than you owe to your good self

Is it true that the world has always got to be

Something that seems to happen somewhere else

Oh, for god sake why don't you realize

That I still hear that call

Do you think you're so brave to just start running

To that which beckons to us all

And tomorrow...

Oooh, not for one second did you look behind you

When you were walking away

Never once did you wish any of us well

Those who had chosen to stay

And if that's what it takes to make it

In the place where you live today

|G |D

Then I guess you'll never read these letters that I've sent

|Bm |C |C

>From the valleys of the green and the grey

|Bm |Am |Em

Valleys of the green and the grey

That's the way it should go I think, at least to me it

sounds pretty good.

What do you think?
