Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[B]
[C]
[B]

[Verse 1]
[B]Around the strangers moved,
the shouts I felt [C]within
New panoramas seen (I loved
it as [B]it was).
Forests of pylons built,
the scaffolding is [C]raised
And how the men pursue their worrk
They act convinced of freedom.
[E]

[Interlude 1]
[Em][C][E][Em]
[C][B]

[Verse 2]
Crossed [B]over by the bridge
The brook was running [C]ill.
We recognised the place - places
we knew as [B]children
We wept upon the sight,
and progress tore our [C]hearts
Fences divide the land,

[Interlude 2]
homes boxed like rabbit hutches.
[E][C][Em][C][E][B][C][G]
[D]

[Verse 3]
[C]Goodbye to the village
[B]Goo[G]dby[D]e t[C]o the village
[B][G]

[Interlude 3]
[C][B][C][D][C][D][C]
[B]

[Verse 4]
Where soil will not [B]provide,
no king and land are [C]one
Monopolise the holy ground,
all that we hold as sacred
[B]No harvest moon shall rise,
no valley homestead [C]seen

[Interlude 4]
And now the cities never end, and how the cities stretch forever
[E][C][Em]
[C][E][Em][C][G][Am][Dm][A]
[Dm][G][Asus4][Am][A][G][A][D][Bb]

[Verse 5]
[Am]And in the morning p[A]romise me gr[Am]eat
times will [Dm]come [A]again[Dm][G][Asus4]
And the homelands in our [Am]hearts
[G]will nev[A]er fad[D]e awa[Bb]y
[Am]Let the lege[A]nds promise me t[Am]he ea[Dm]rth
shall [A]rise again[Dm][G]
[Asus4]And homelands in the hearts of men shall nev[G]er[A]
[D]fade away.

[Interlude 5]
[Bb][D][E][C][Em][C][E][C][Em]
[G][D]

[Verse 6]
[C]Goodbye to the village
[B]Goo[Bm]dbye [G]to[D] the[C] village
[B]Goo[Bm]dbye [G]to[D] the[C] village
[B]Goo[G]dby[D]e to th[C]e village
[Bm][G]

[Interlude 6]
[B][C]
[D][B]

[Verse 7]
I'll never [B]never
see my home
I'll never never see my home
[C]

[Verse 8]
You'll never never see your [B]home
[Bm]You'll [C]nev[C]er
[C]nev[B]er see your home
