Enjoy.
Note: All F chords should be played as Fmaj7 in the song, unless otherwise
noted. Just continue the last chord if there is no chord noted, until a
chord change. Also all of the chord changes are correct in timing relative
to the words. Lastly, just listen to the song for the strumming pattern.
CAPO 3
INTRO:
Born on the plains a farmers sons and brothers the same
raised on promises we'd stay that way
As boys we believed summers at the sea we were free
to become men of good will side by side
And we were children then footprints in the sand
and where the ocean bends we made our promises
BREAK:
Duty soon calls nineteen forty-three we enrolled
together we would be our families pride
And we were soldiers then our bodies in the sand
and like that sand through our hands go our grandest plans
(not maj7)
and just to see you face for one moment I'd cross the ocean again
the end is not the end
and I'll be by your side on the other side
and I'll be by your side on the other side
And through the cloud of death we find our way back home
and though I hold your hand all must go alone
(not maj7)
and when you see the face of our maker you don't have to be ashamed
he knows the promises we made
and I'll be by your side on the other side
and I'll be by your side on the other side
