INTRO: A
 
          D                A
I used to look out from my window
            D                 A
And see the tall grass in the wind
         A7                D            Bm
Standing there just like advance guards
E               E7          A
Waiting for the battle to begin
 
 
          D               A
My mother used to be much younger
              D                A
She'd sing me soft, sweet lullabies
          A7             D     Bm
I saw my fortress in the mountains
E           E7              A
Each time I looked into her eyes
 
 
CHORUS:
 
But now she's gone
D              G              D            A
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
D          G            D           A       D
Take me, I just want to know what I used to know
               G              D            A
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
D              G          D            A
Take me there, take me, I just want to go
 
 
            D                  A
My father's hair has turned to grey now
        D                  A
I never stopped to ask him why
            A7                  D       Bm  E
And all the things that he once treasured
           E7              A
I see them slowly drifting by
 
 
          D                A
And now I look out from my mountain
            D               A
And see the soldiers in the field
            A7                 D     Bm  E
It won't be long now 'til they have me
           E7                    A
This time advance guards are for real
 
 
CHORUS:
 
Come on, come on and
D              G              D            A
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
D          G            D           A       D
Take me, I just want to know what I used to know
               G              D            A
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
D              G          D            A
Take me there, take me, I just want to go
 
 
CHORUS:
D              G              D            A
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
D          G            D           A       D
Take me, I just want to know what I used to know
               G              D            A
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
D              G          D            B
Take me there, take me, I just want to go
 
 
CHORUS:      (## key change ##)
E              A              E            B
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
E          A            E           B       E
Take me, I just want to know what I used to know
               A              E            B
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
E              A          E            B
Take me there, take me, I just want to go
 
 
CHORUS:    (## fade to end ##)
E              A              E            B
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
E          A            E           B       E
Take me, I just want to know what I used to know
               A              E            B
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
E              A          E            B
Take me there, take me, I just want to go
