A                                  D
There were people living in a green valley
                            E
Found a way to make a lot of money
                    D
Made the green turn gradually gray
A                                        D
They figured they could do whatever they wanted
                      E
Everything would be alright
                        D
But scars don't always heal away

E
And the sons and the daughters
   F#m           D
Got diamonds and gold
E
But they were given a land where
F#m           D
Strong roots never take hold

D
Good seed don't grow
       E      F#m
On the barren ground
D                 A
Good things don't come along
Bm7             E
As you just sit dreaming on
D
Good seed don't grow
       E      F#m
On the barren ground
D              A
Say everything fades away
Bm7           E
There you are still around
A E D               A E D
     What'll you do      where will you go

A                          D
There was a ship along the coast
                          E
Carrying a whole of black money
                   D
In the sound near the northern lights
A                 D
When the ship set sail
D                   E
The crew looked for guidance
E                   D
In the bottom of an empty glass

E
And the captain said
   F#m         D
"Pour me another rye"
E
Then the water turned black
F#m               D
As a cold winter's night

D
Good seed don't grow
       E      F#m
On the barren ground
D                 A
Good things don't come along
Bm7             E
As you just sit dreaming on
D
Good seed don't grow
       E      F#m
On the barren ground
D              A
Say everything fades away
Bm7           E
There you are still around
A E D               A E D
     What'll you do      where will you go

There you are still around
(...repeat and fade out)
