Verse
[Cm] Beyond the [Cm7] horizon of the [Ab] place we lived when we were young
[Cm] In a world of [Cm7] magnets and [Ab] miracles
[Cm] Our thoughts strayed [Cm7] constantly and [Ab] without boundary
[Cm] The ringing of the [Cm7] division bell had [Ab] begun
[Ab] Along the long [Bb] road and on [G7] down the causeway
[Ab] Do they still [Bb] meet there by [G7] the cut.
Verse 2
[Cm] There was a [Cm7] ragged band who [Ab] followed in our footsteps
[Cm] Running before [Cm7] times took our [Ab] dreams away
[Cm] Leaving the myriad small [Cm7] creatures trying [Ab] to tieus to the ground
[Cm] To a life consumed by [Cm7] slow [Ab] decay
Chorus
The grass was [Cm] greener [Gm] [Ab] [Bb]
The light was [Cm] brighter [Eb] [Fm] [Ab]
When friends [Cm] surrounded [Gm] [Ab] [Bb]
The nights of [Cm] wonder [Eb] [Fm] [Ab]
Verse3
[Cm] Looking beyond [Cm7] the embers of [Ab] bridges glowing behind us
[Cm] To a glimpse [Cm7] of how green it was [Ab] on the other side
[Cm] Steps taken forwards but [Cm7] sleepwalking [Ab] back again
[Cm] Dragged by the force [Cm7] of some sleeping [Ab] tide
[Ab] at a higher [Bb] altitude with [G7] flag unfurled
[Ab] We reached the [Bb] dizzy heights [G7] of that dreamed of world
Marching drums bit
Verse4
[Cm] Encumbered [Cm7] forever by desire [Ab] and ambition
[Cm] Theres a hunger [Cm7] still [Ab] unsatisfied
[Cm] Our weary eyes still [Cm7] stray to the [Ab] horizon
[Cm] Though down this road [Cm7] I've been so many [Ab] times
Chorus2
The grass was [Cm] greener [Gm] [Ab] [Bb]
The light was [Cm] brighter [Eb] [Fm] [Ab]
When friends [Cm] surrounded [Gm] [Ab] [Bb]
The nights of [Cm] wonder [Eb] [Fm] [Ab]
With friends [Cm] surrounded [Gm] [Ab] [Bb]
The dawn mist [Cm] glowing [Eb] [Fm] [Ab]
The water [Cm] flowing [Gm] [Ab] [Bb]
The endless [Cm] river [Eb] [Fm] [Ab]
Forever and [Cm] ever [Gm] [Ab] [Bb]
Solo outro
[Cm] [Gm] [Ab] [Bb]
[Cm] [Eb] [Fm] [Ab] and repeat
