[Verse]
C/G
Turn like a wheel,
Am
into the road,

into the next town

Take a drink but buy your meal,
Am
out of the point,
G
we wait for tight lives (?)
[Pre-Chorus]

Build a wall and make it high,
C/G F
don't deny your hungry brothers,
Am G
if you dig a well then make it deep,

and if it spoils then dig another
Am G
Remember our faces every day,
C/G
that you roam

When the race is run,

come on home

[Verse]
C/G
Plough through the field,
Am
push through the crowds,

Am
stand where the magic,
G
meets the real

Am G
Fly and don't come down,
C/G F
unless there's no-one there to stop you,

Make thunder when you run,

if you're tired if you're down,
C/G
we'll never drop you
