A Thousand Letters

[Intro] Am  F  G  Am

[Primeira Parte]

  Am            F    G        Am
A last embrace, last words to say
  Am                 F          G    Am
Before the whole war took their fate away
  Am      C      Dm              F  G
Before to kill became his forced task
    Am       C           Dm           F  G
And bleeding fields were covered with sins
Em
His wounded heart is crying out for home

[Refrão]

Am         F      G
   Away, away, my love
              F       G        Am
To where all darkness will be gone
       F           G
Away, away to our land
               F     G     F     G     Am
Where you will be forever in my arms again

[Segunda Parte]

Am               F     G      Am
Days of dust, of cruelty and death
Am         C     Dm                    F  G
Broke his soul until there was nothing left
Em
Only her love that carried him through all

[Refrão]

Am         F      G
   Away, away, my love
              F       G        Am
To where all darkness will be gone
       F           G
Away, away to our land
               F     G     F     G     Em
Where you will be forever in my arms again

F                 G                   Am
  He passed high mountains and rough rivers
F             G               Am
  He wrote a thousand letters to be near
F              G
  He walked a thousand miles
C                Am
Just to see her smile again
      F     G      Am      (Am  Em)
Just for returning home

[Refrão]

       G       A
Away, away, my love
             G        A       Bm
To where all darkness will be gone
       G          A
Away, away to our land
               G     A    G     A      Bm
Where you will be forever in my arms again

               G       A
Tell the wind I'll survive
G       A         Bm
Just to feel you again
        G            A
I will fight til the end
           G        A
To lay my promised love
   G    A        Bm
Forever in your hands
