[Intro]
G C Am D
[Verse]
GThe wind blew from the fenland
'cross the Dbig November sky
wGind chimes sang CuncertainGly
all the Dcamp was qGuiet
I look Emhard to the horizon
maybe Csoon they would Gcome
with their suits and their papers
to Dmove my people on
I Gsaw a skylark CrisGing
Dfrom an empty field
Ganother home we Ccould have Gmade
another Dhome we have to Gleave D
I'm Emtired of their permissions
to Cuse what should be Gfree
tired of heavy voices
telling Dme what I should be
[Chorus]
Dif I fall bury me Emstanding
if I fall won't you bury me Cdeep?
I will not fade
I will not Gsleep
[Instrumental]
G C Am D
[Verse]
the Gleaves of life are CdriGven
ever Dsince this world began
and the Gleaves of life have Cblown me Ground
more than any woman can
what I can't Embear to remember
is what I can't Cbear to fGorget
the Droad goes on forever
our time's not over yet
[Chorus]
Dif I fall bury me Emstanding
if I fall won’t you bury me Cdeep?
I will not fade
I will not Gsleep
[Instrumental]
G C Am D
[Chorus]
Dif I fall bury me Emstanding
if I fall won’t you bury me Cdeep?
I will not fade
I will not Gsleep
Dif I fall bury me Emstanding
if I fall won’t you bury me Cdeep?
I will not fade
I will not Gsleep
