[Verse 1]

Am            Am7           F                              
   Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
Am              Am7                 F
   In a world of magnets and miracles
Am                      Am7              F
   Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
Am                   Am7                 F
   The ringing of the division bell had begun

F                       E       
   Along the long road and on down the causeway
F                  E
   Do they still meet there by the cut

[Verse 2]

Am                   Am7                 F
   There was a ragged band who followed in our footsteps
Am                   Am7                 F
   Running before times took our dreams away
Am                   Am7                 F
   Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
Am                   Am7                 F
   To a life consumed by slow decay


[Chorus 1]

F                 Am    Em   F   G
   The grass was greener
                 Am   C   Dm   F
The light was brighter
                 Am   Em   F   G
When friends surrounded
                 Am    C   Dm
The nights of wonder


[Verse 3]

Am                   Am7                 F
   Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
Am                   Am7                 F 
   To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Am                   Am7                 F
   Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Am                   Am7               F
   Dragged by the force of some inner tide

F                   E      
   At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
F                     E    
   We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

[Verse 4]

Am                   Am7                 F
   Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
Am                   Am7                 F
  There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Am                   Am7                 F
   Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Am                   Am7                 F
   Go down this road I've been so many times


[Chorus 2]

F                  Am    Em   F   G
   The grass was greener
                 Am   C   Dm   F
The light was brighter
                 Am    Em   F   G
The taste was sweeter
                 Am   C   Dm   F
The nights of wonder
                 Am    Em   F   G
With friends surrounded
                 Am   C   Dm   F
The dawn mist glowing
             Am    Em   F   G
The water flowing
              Am   C   Dm   F
The endless river
             Am    Em   F   G
Forever and ever...

(Epic Lap steel solo)
