C G Am G F On the broad backs of men, we never met with their pens and their stones, G C they did the same, C G Am G F In the hours passed in the pubs, all the glasses were full and they were G C wet to the sleeve. C G Am G F G C And the eyes were so clear on the girl I met there,I swore I’d never leave. CHORUS F G And the young men who longed for these shores in a song, C C/B Am All they wanted was a home, F G C C/B Am And I wanted one too with a girl eyes as blue as the light of dawn, F G C Patiently, she waits there for me to come home. VERSE 2 C G Am G F G Was a bleary-eyed night, drunk from the lights and the sounds of a city C awake, C G Am G F G And she stood in the crowd, her face as a shroud, leaving nothing for my eye C to take. C G Am G F But a warmth was so clear, it betrayed her as nearly she glowed like those G C lights on the bridge, C G Am G F G And a pain in my side, as I was drawn to her pride like the rise of the wind C to the ridge. CHORUS F G And the young men who longed for these shores in a song, C C/B Am All they wanted was a home, F G C C/B Am And I wanted one too with a girl eyes as blue as the light of dawn, F G C Patiently, she waits there for me to come home. INSTRUMENTAL - PLAY CHORUS CHORDS VERSE 3 (stum full chords) C G Am G F These waters have run red, these beaches have bled from the wounds at the G C dark heart of man, C G Am G F Daughters grown sharp, tongues like knives to the heart or a charm for the G C curse of the land, C G Am G F With prayers in their eyes, how well they've disguised that it's love G C they're giving away. C G Am G F G But you might believe when your hard heart says leave but this one implores C you to stay. CHORUS F G And the young men who longed for these girls with our songs, C C/B Am All we wanted was a home. F G C C/B Am She wants one too with someone heart as true as this prison made of stone, F G C Patiently, she waits there for me to come home, F G C Patiently, I wait to be free and be home.
