Cm Cm7 G# Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young Cm Cm7 G# In a world of magnets and miracles Cm Cm7 G# Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary Cm Cm7 G# The ringing of the division bell had begun Cm G# G7sus4 G G7 Along the long road and on down the causeway Cm G# G7sus4 G Do they still meet there by the cut There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps Running before time took our dreams away Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground To a life consumed by slow decay Chorus: Cm Gm G# A# The grass was greener Cm Dm D# Fm Gm G# The light was brighter Cm Gm G# A# When friends surrounded Cm Dm D# Fm Gm G# The nights of wonder Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again Dragged by the force of some inner tide At a higher altitude with flag unfurled We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world Encumbered forever by desire and ambition There's a hunger still unsatisfied Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon Though down this road we've been so many times Chorus: The grass was greener The light was brighter The taste was sweeter The nights of wonder With friends surrounded The dawn mist glowing The water flowing The endless river For ever and ever | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsCm Cm7 Dm Fm G Gm G7 G7sus4 Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
