[VERSE 1:]
D A Bm
This is really not my home
G D/F#
Oh where are you my lovely Bonny?
D A Bm
I'm afraid and all alone
G A D
There is no peace for me
[VERSE 2:]
I'm sitting in the stranger's room
Playing at the stranger's table
Shining empty like the moon
There is no peace for me
[Chorus:]
G D/F# Em Bm Em
But in the darkness struggle cold
Bm A G A D
I think about a garden valley
A D/G
Gentle as the leaves unfold
D A D/G D
Singing out across the bay
A Bm
Distant and so far away
G A D
There's no peace for me
[VERSE 3:]
I'm blinded by your city lights
I wander through these fearful places
The colours fade to black and white
There is no peace for me
[VERSE 4:]
And these are not the friends I know
These are not their smiling faces
A desert that no-one should know
There is no peace for me
[Chorus:]
G D/F# Em Bm Em
But in the darkness struggle cold
Bm A G A D
I think about a garden valley
A D/G
Gentle as the leaves unfold
D A D/G D
Singing out across the bay
A Bm
Distant and so far away
G A D
There's no peace for me
[VERSE 5:]
Now I know and feel it well
Poor immigrants deep sunken feeling
Standing at the gates of Hell
There is no peace for me
[VERSE 6:]
Burned out by their master's greed
Cruel exile transportation
Robbed of every love and need
There is no peace for me
[Chorus:]
G D/F# Em Bm Em
But in the darkness struggle cold
Bm A G A D
I think about a garden valley
A D/G
Gentle as the leaves unfold
D A D/G D
Singing out across the bay
A Bm
Distant and so far away
G A D
There's no peace for me
