[Intro 1]
[C]
[G][C][G]
[C][Bb][G][Fm][G]
[Gsus4][G]

[Verse 1]
In [G]a town [C]by the border
Where the [Bb]skies light up at [G]night
The river runs muddy wa[Fm]ter
And then [G]in England [Gsus4]lost the [G]fight

[Verse 2]
In [G]a tree [Cm]there's a bird
Just [Bb]singing to the [G]night
And I fly [Fm]alone
[G]Taking [Gsus4]away my own[G]

[Verse 3]
I never under[Bb]stand
The [G]games that [C]we play
I have to stop and won[Bb]der
What I really mean to say
[Cm][C][Bb][C][Bb]

[Verse 4]
[C]How long, 'til you [Bb]find what
you're look[F]ing for
[C]How long, 'til it's [Bb]gone, gone, gone
[Dm]And ever[C]ybody wants steady came[Bb]
from [F]pay [C](How long)
Until our kingdom slips [Bb]away

[Verse 5]
There's a [C]man [Cm]on the hill
Just [Bb]the eye a[Gm] fill
[G]No stranger to the[Fm] danger
He [G]rides where he will

[Verse 6]
While the [G]time is [Cm]finally here
Where we [Bb]let it all disapp[G]ear
In this town by the bor[Fm]der
Where [Gsus4]our legions are s[G]o clear

[Verse 7]
I never understand
[Bb]The game[G]s that they [C]play
I have to stop and wonder
[Bb]What I really mean to sa[Bb]y

[Verse 8]
[Bb]How [C]long, 'til you fin[Bb]d what
you're look[F]ing for
[C]How long, 'til it's [Bb]gone, gone, [Dm]gone
And [C]everybody wants steady [Bb]came
from [F]pay [C](How long)
Nobody cares anymore, [G]cares anymore
[Gsus4]Nobody

[Verse 9]
[G]cares
[Gsus4]anymore
And nobody cares [G]anymore,[Am][Dm][Bb][C][Am][Bb]
[Gm][G][Asus4][A][Dm][Bb][C][Am]
[Bb][C]
[Bb]Cares anymore[C]

[Verse 10]
[C]How long, 'til you [Bb]find what
you're look[F]ing for
[C]How long, 'til it's [Bb]gone, gone, gone
[Dm]And [C]everybody wants steady
[Bb]came from [F]pay [C](How long)
And mother kingdom slips [Bb]away

[Verse 11]
[C]How long, 'til you [Bb]find what
you're look[F]ing for
[C]How long, 'til it's [Bb]gone, gone, gone

Mother kingdom slips [Bb]away
[C][Bb][F][C]
[Bb]

[Verse 12]
[Dm]How [C]long,
Tell me,
[Bb]How [F]long[C]
And buddy's soul is slippin' [G]away,

It's slippin' away
It's slippin' away
Slippin' away

[Outro 1]
Slippin' away
[Gsus4]
