CAPO 7

Intro: (Strum the first 3 chords once followed by arpeggio) 
G--- D--- Em--- C- D- x2

Verse 1:
G          D6
Hot is the night
Em             (Fill 1)
And cold is the morning
C           G
Deep is the sea
           D
That we’re under

And small is the man
Caught in the whirlpool
Hope is prayer
And his pleasure

(Fill 2)
D  Cadd2  B5 

Chorus A:
          G     
And it’s a road 
         C                G
That you gotta be forced along
           C              G
And you’re lucky to be so strong
         D  (fill 2)
And well fed

Verse 2:
Oh I once belonged 
to a nation
Now I am one
With the world

And I’m hoping to change
Evil to virtue
Failing to be
All I can

::repeat Chorus A::

Verse 3:
And long is the road
To reach Valhalla
Safe is the seat
Down in the suburbs

I said age cannot save
You from knowing
That all hearts are one
To a tree

Chorus B:
             G
Yeah, it’s a road
        C               G
That we gotta be forced along
       C                G
You’re lucky to be that strong
         D    (fill 2)
And well fed

::repeat Chorus A::

(fill 2)
D  Cadd2  B  G
