A Sort of Homecoming (From the album "The Unforgettable Fire")
--------------------
NOTE: Much of this is taken from the book The Best of U2
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
G6 D2
time to heal, 'Desire', time
G6 D2
and your earth moves beneath
G6 D2
your own dream landscape
G6 D2
Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run________
G G2 G G2 D2 D4 D Gii
I'll be there, I'll be there
G G2 G G2
tonight, a high road, a high road out of here
D2 D4 D Gii
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
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
G6 D2 G6 D2
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 G
I'll be there, I'll be there tonight tonight tonight
G G2 G G2 D2 D4 D D4
I'll be there tonight, I believe. I'll be there so high (land),
C7
I'll be there tonight, tonight____________
D D2 G6 D2
O come away, I sing I say, um ha, o come away oh say.
G6 D2 G6 D2
The wind will crack in wintertime
G6
this bomb-blast lightning waltz
D2 G6
no spoken words, just a scream . . . yeah.... oh........ oh.....
D2 G6 D2 G6 D4 D G G2 G G2
tonight we'll build a bridge across the sea and land
D2 D4 D Gii
see the sky burning rain
G G2
she will die and live again tonight_______
G G2 D2 D4 D Gii G6 D2 G6 D4 D G6 D2 G6 D4 D
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
