Cm            Cm7           Ab                              Cm

Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young

              Cm7                 Ab

In a world of magnets and miracles

Cm                      Cm7              Ab

Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary

Cm                   Cm7                 Ab

The ringing of the division bell had begun



              Bb            G7

Along the long road and on down the causeway

Ab             Bb            G7

Do they still meet there by the cut.





(same chord sequence for other verses)



There was a ragged band who followed in our footsteps

Running before times took our dreams away

Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tieus to the ground

To a life consumed by slow decay



Ab              Cm    Gm Ab

The grass was greener

Bb                 Cm  Eb Fm

The light was brighter

Ab              Cm   Gm  Ab

When friends surrounded

Bb               Cm   Eb Fm

The nights of wonder





Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us

To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side

Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again

Dragged by the force of some sleeping tide



at a higher altitude with flag unfurled

We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world





Marching drums bit

(Nylon Strung guitar)

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition

Theres a hunger still unsatisfied

Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon

Though down this road I've been so many times





(same sequence as in first chorus )

The grass was greener

The light was brighter

The taste was sweeter

The nights of wonder

With friends surrounded

The dawn mist glowing

The water flowing

The endless river



Forever and ever...
