[Verse 1]
DGA
This land is a lovely green
Bm7Em7A
it reminds me of my own home.
DGA
Such children I've seldom seen,
Bm7Em7A
even in my own home.
DGA
The sky is so bright and clean,
Bm7Em7A
just like my home.
DGA
Kind people as have ever been,
Bm7Em7
won't you take me back to my own home?
[Chorus]
AD/AAEm7D/F#GEm7
Jump up behind me, my love, jump up behind me.
AD/AAEm7D/F#GEm7
Old Dan can bear us both, jump up behind me.
AD/AA
We'll follow this road till we reach the sea,
Em7D/F#GEm7
Jump up behind me.
AD/AA
Catch the tide and we'll set Dan free,
Em7D/F#GA
Jump up behind me.
[Verse 2]
DGA
I've been in this world awhile
Bm7Em7A
And I've seen a lot of country.
DGA
Many days and many miles,
Bm7Em7A
All various and sundry.
DGA
I've had my way and I've had my fun
Bm7Em7A
And I've had my chance to run free,
DGA
Burning hot beneath the sun,
Bm7Em7
Freezing cold and wintry.
[Chorus]
AD/AAEm7D/F#GEm7
Jump up behind me, my love, jump up behind me.
AD/AAEm7D/F#GEm7
Old Dan can bear us both, jump up behind me.
AD/AA
We'll follow this road till we reach the sea,
Em7D/F#GEm7
Jump up behind me.
AD/AA
Catch the tide and we'll set Dan free,
Em7D/F#GAD2
Jump up behind me.

BmA/BBmCD/F#GABmA/BBm
I know now, one thing only matters in these days
CD/F#GABmA/BBm
One thing, true love,
CD/F#GABmA/BBm
love and love alone, true love (I know now)
[Verse e]
DGA
I Came out of a dream last night,
Bm7Em7A
Thought I was back in my old home.
DGA
Mom and Dad were both still alive
Bm7Em7A
And the babies not yet born, no.
DGA
Felt like a festival
Bm7Em7A
And it felt like a Christmas morning,
DGA
Felt the darkness fall away
Bm7Em7
Even as the world was turning on,
DGA
La la la la la
Bm7Em7
I mean even as the world was turning on.
DGABm7Em7A
La la la la la, la la la la (I say).
DGABm7Em7A
La la la la la, la la la la
DGABm7Em7A
La la la la la, la la la la (c'mon)
DGABm7Em7A
La la la la la, la la la la (I say) ...fading
