Am
The emerald trees dance
And the rivers run free
The mighty stag follows
D Am
Watching over me
Am
These scars on my back
Are an ache long subdued
It's the memories that haunt
Am
Of a land I once knew
[Chorus]
F G Am
Somewhere over the mountains
C G E
There's a place I called my own
A F G Am
Somewhere over the mountains
F G Am
There's a land I once called home
[Interlude]
G C
[Verse 2]
Am C
Far have I gone
G Am
Many lands I have seen
Am C
Too many to count are
G E
The places I've been
Am C
No sight can contend with
G Am
The steadfast oak tree
Am C
That welcomes me home
G Am
To the land of the free
[Chorus]
F G Am
Somewhere over the mountains
C G E
There's a place I called my own
A F G Am
Somewhere over the mountains
F G Am
There's a land I once called home
[Interlude]
G C
[Bridge]
Am
We are the forgotten
Am
We are the forlorn
Am
The ones who have bled
C G E
The ones who have been scorned
Am C
But hear me my sisters
G Am
Listen O Brothers
Am C G C
One day I'll find a way back to each other
Am
I promise I'll find a way back to each other-er-er-er
[Chorus]
F G Am
Somewhere over the mountains
C G E
There's a place I called my own
A F G Am
Somewhere over the mountains
F G Am
There's a land I once called home
F G Am
There's a land I once called home
F G Am
There's a land I once called home
