[Intro]

[Verse]
Fm Ab Cm                        Ab                               
■  ■  Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
Cm                        Ab      
In a world of magnets and miracles
Cm                                     Ab              
■  Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
    Cm                               Ab   
The ringing of the division bell had begun
Cm                      Gsus4       Gm      
Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway
Cm                              Gsus4 Gm
Do they still meet there by the Cut   ■ 
Cm                           Ab                    
There was a ragged band that followed our footsteps
Cm                                  Ab  
Running before time took our dreams away
Cm                                 Ab                            
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
Cm                         Ab   
To a life consumed by slow decay


[Chorus]
              Cm      Gm
The grass was greener ■ 
Ab Bb            Cm       Eb
■  The light was brighter ■ 
Fm Ab           Cm         Gm
■  With friends surrounded ■ 
Ab Bb            Cm     Eb Fm
■  The nights of wonder ■  ■ 


[Verse]
Gsus4 Cm                           Ab                       
■     Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
Cm                                      Ab        
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Cm                       Ab                     
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Cm                             Ab  
Dragged by force of some inner tide


[Chorus]
Cm                        Gsus4         Gm
At a higher altitude with flag unfurled ■ 
Cm                                   Gsus4      Gm   
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

[Verse]
                      Ab                 
Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
Cm                        Ab         
■  There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Cm                      Ab                  
■  Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Cm                                       Ab   
Though down this road we've been so many times


[Chorus]
              Cm      Gm
The grass was greener ■ 
Ab Bb            Cm      
■  The light was brighter
Eb Fm Fm7 Ab
■  ■  ■   ■ 
              Cm      Gm7
The taste was sweeter ■  
Ab Bb            Cm     Eb
■  The nights of wonder ■ 


[Verse]
Fm Ab           Cm         Gm
■  With friends surrounded ■ 
Ab Bb            Cm      Eb
■  The dawn mist growing ■ 
Fm Ab        Cm      Gm
■  The water flowing ■ 


[Chorus]
Ab Bb          Cm    Eb
■  The endless river ■ 
Fm Ab      Cm      
■  Forever and ever
