A Sort of Homecoming

U2

Tom: D

(Bm  D9  G6 D9)

 (Bm  D9  G6 D9)
And you know it's time to go / through the sleet and driving snow 
Across the fields of mourning / to a light's in the distance
And you hunger for the time / time to heal, 'Desire', time 
And your earth moves beneath / your own dream landscape 

G       G/E      G             G/E                                            D          (D4  D9  D)
Oh, ho, ho on borderland we ruuuuuuuuun 
  G              G6           G              G6             D9                 D4                             D                                      D9 
I'll be there, I'll be there tonight, a high road, a high road out of here 
(Em                    G                                                  D9                                         Em                                          D9)
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 

(Em  D9)
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 
(Bm  D9  G6 D9)
O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I  
O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I 

G       G/E      G             G/E                                   D          
Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run
         D4             D9                                           D
and still we run, we run and don't look back 
  G              G6           G              G6             D9                 D4                             D           D9 
I'll be there, I'll be there tonight    tonight      tonight 
Em                                                                                                                                                              D9  
I'll be there tonight, I believe.  I'll be there so high, I'll be there tonight tonight
(Bm  D9  G6 D9)
O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I  
 (Em  D9)
The wind will crack in wintertime / this bomb-blast lightning waltz 
no spoken words, just a scream . . . yeah....
 
G      G/E      G    G/E           D                         D4                                     D9                                              D
oh........ oh..... tonight we'll build a bridge / across the sea and land
see the sky burning rain / she will die and live again tonight 

(Bm  D9  G6 D9)
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
        G                        D                    G                   D                  
I am coming home I am coming home
