U2 Lyrics

Intro G6 D2 G6 D2 G6 D2 G6 D2

And you know it's time to go

G6 D2

through the sleet and driving snow

G6 D2

across the fields of mourning to a

G6

light's in the distance

D2 G6 D4 D2

And you hunger for the time

time to heal, 'Desire', time

and your earth moves beneath

your own dream landscape

G G2 G G2 D2 D4 D Gii

Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run________

G G2 G G2

I'll be there, I'll be there

D2 D4 D Gii

tonight, a high road, a high road out of here

the city walls are all come down

the dust a smoke screen all around to see

faces ploughed like fields that once

gave no resistance

And we live by the side of the road

on the side of a hill as the valleys explode

dislocated, suffocated

the land grows weary of it's own

G6 D2 G6 D2

O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I hmm hmm

G6 D2 G6 D2

O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I

G G2 G G2 D2 D4 D G

Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run, and still we run, we run and don't look back

G G2 G G2 D2 D4 D D4

I'll be there, I'll be there tonight tonight tonight

C7

I'll be there tonight, I believe. I'll be there so high (land),

D D2 G6 D2

I'll be there tonight, tonight____________

G6 D2 G6 D2

O come away, I sing I say, um ha, o come away oh say.

G6 D2 G6 D2

G6

The wind will crack in wintertime

D2 G6

this bomb-blast lightning waltz

D2 G6 D2 G6 D4 D G G2 G G2

no spoken words, just a scream . . . yeah.... oh........ oh.....

D2 D4 D Gii

tonight we'll build a bridge across the sea and land

G G2

see the sky burning rain

G G2 D2 D4 D Gii G6 D2 G6 D4 D G6 D2 G6 D4 D

she will die and live again tonight_______

And you heart beats so slow

through the rain and fallen snow

across the fields of morning

to a light that's in the distance

Oh don't sorrow, no don't weep

for tonight, at last

I am coming home

I am coming home
