The campfires have been lit along the river

You wouldn’t know of trouble anywhere

Someone is playing a concertina
            D/F#  G    C/G  G
Some old familiar air

It takes me back into another lifetime
                                    G   C/G  G
Before we ever fought in fields of mud
       G     G/B    G    C          G/B         C/G
Where lives like autumn leaves are tossed and scattered
         CMaj7/G  D/F#     G    C/G  G
And lost in the swirling flood


           G    G/B  C     D/F#  G
But how a song can heal a weary heart

A song can heal a weary heart

Time will end all sorrow by and by

The moon is laying soft upon the water

Smoke comes drifting gently from the hill

Maybe in another lifetime it will
