[ intro: haven't figured it out yet, sorry ]
[ verse 1:]
|Dm |C
The time I think most clearly
|Bb |Dm
The time I drift away
|Dm |C
Is on the busride that meanders
|Bb |Dm
Up these valleys of green and grey
|Dm |C
I get to think about what might have been
|Bb |Dm
And what may yet come true
|Dm |C
And I get to pass these rainy miles
|Bb |Dm
Thinking of you
[ bridge 1: ]
|Bb |B
And all the while, all the while
|Am |Am
I still hear that call
|Bb |B
From the land of gold and poison
|Am |Am
That beckons to us all
[ verse 2: ]
Nothing changes here very much
You used to say it never will
The pubs are all full on friday nights
And things get started still
You spend hours last week with Billy-boy
Bleeding, yeah queueing in casualty
Stare at those posters we used to laugh at
In heaven neverland, palmtrees by the sea
[ bridge 2: I'm not quite sure of the chords here, but
anyway, it's possible to sing along.]
|Bb |Am
There was no need for these guys to hurt him so bad
|Dm |Am
When all they had to do was knock him down
|Bb |Am
But noone asks too many questions, not anymore
|Dm |Am
Since you left this town
[ Chorus: ]
|F |C
And tomorrow brings another train
|Am |Bb
Another young brave steals away
|F |C
But you're the one I remember
|Am |Bb
From these valleys of the green and the grey
[ Verse 3: ]
You used to talk about winners and losers all the time
As if that was all there was
As if we were not of the same blood family
As if we live by different laws
Do you owe so much less to these rain swept hills
Than you owe to your good self
Is it true that the world has always got to be
Something that seems to happen somewhere else
[ Bridge 3: Same as Bridge 2 ]
Oh, for god sake why don't you realize
That I still hear that call
Do you think you're so brave to just start running
To that which beckons to us all
[ Chorus: ]
And tomorrow ...
[ Instr. break: Just play Dm at the right moments, then start
to shout ...]
[ End: Chords of Chorus ]
|F |C
Oooh, not for one second did you look behind you
|Am |Bb
When you were walking away
|F |C
Never once did you wish any of us well
|Am |Bb
Those who had chosen to stay
|F |C
And if that's what it takes to make it
|Am |Bb
In the place where you live today
|F |C
Then I guess you'll never read these letters that I've sent
|Am |Bb
From the valleys of the green and the grey
|Dm |C |Dm
Valleys of the green and the grey
