A
See the bracken green on the hills
E
See the gifts of every summer
D
Suns sinking low in the long grass
A
Always rising and falling down
A
There's bluebells growing under the trees
E
And I will be there in June
D
I will walk back down the river
A
To some unknown salvation
F#m
Taking me back again
A
Memories of the incomplete
F#m
The birch, the oak, the rowan
C#m
And the accordions played down in the hall
E
By the riverside
C#m
As if God hadn't happened at all
A
Stealing heaven from a moon-lit door
F#m
Taking me back down the railroad tracks
E
To get lost in it all
A
On young ploughed fields I kissed your eyes
E
A crown of songs around your head
D
And by the railings at the harbor wall
A
The radios played
A
Never thought I could look upon
E
Something so beautiful, so pure
D
Brighter than sun on snow
A
In some new enchanted garden
F#m
She said we've been here before
A
As the skies are slashed by flames
F#m
Our citadels come crashing down
C#m
A constant sea, a war of waves
E
Lay down your life for me
C#m
Lay down your love again
A
We'll talk it over
F#m
And we'll waken
D
Like kings some day
F#m E
And the accooooooooooordions played
