     Bm                         G
As I walked to cross the barren land

          D      A
I found a path – trodden and beaten

Bm                        G                   D
Leads me through a golden winding stream from old

      A
Where ancient people passed 




     G              Bm
They never fought among themselves

       A                           Bm
Though battle cries were heard for miles around

    G
But people on the hill

Bm                        A    G
People on the hill looked down

A        D   A   G
And they all lay down

A        D   A   G
And they all lay down

A        F#m Bm Em
And I’ve run aground

G
Don’t you look back

A
Don’t you look back

        Bm              G             D
Looking back as I move away I hear no sound

Of fighting and destruction

Moments I was lost in time

I walked around where ancient people passed

Just foot-stained grass left on the hill

A        D   A   G
And they all lay down
