The Long Journey Home

D  A D  G

D                       G         A
If on every ocean the ship is a throne
G             A        D      G     Em           A
And for each mast cut down another sapling is grown
D                              G         A
Then I could believe that I'm bound to find
G         Em          A     D
A better life than I left behind

G              D       F#m
But as you ascend the ladder
D           Bm            Em
Look out below where you tread
A        D                    G      A
For the colours bled as they overflowed
G       Em
Red, white and blue
A                D
Green, white and gold
D                       G         A
So I had to leave from my country of birth
G             A        D
As for each child grown tall
G     Em           A
Another lies in the earth
D                       G         A
And for every rail we laid in the loam
           G         Em          A            D
There's a thousand miles of the long journey home

G              D       F#m
But as you ascend the ladder
D           Bm            Em
Look out below where you tread
A        D                    G      A
For the colours bled as they overflowed
G       Em
Red, white and blue
A                D
Green, white and gold

G              D       F#m
But as you ascend the ladder
D           Bm            Em
Look out below where you tread
A        D                    G      A
For the colours bled as they overflowed
G       Em
Red, white and blue
A                D
Green, white and gold
