Intro
F A# F
Verse 1
A# F
I drive the roads of East Northumberland
A# F
Between the uplands and the sea
A# Dm A#
Where the wind blows cold and the long grass is taking hold
F A# F A# F
Of the traces of how it used to be
Verse 2
A# F
The windscreen wipers beat a rhythm
A# F
The years roll back across the plain
A# Dm A#
And the ghosts of the men are going to their destiny
F A# F
Heading for the back-shift in the rain
Verse 3
A# F
You can read their names on the monument
A# F
Their voices echo everywhere
A# Dm A# F
Their proud banners call, hanging on the museum wall
A# F
Do you remember why they're there?
Bridge
A#
And do you understand
F
It's only time's shifting sands that carry on?
A#
Do you understand
F
That only time will tell, and time is moving on?
Instr
F A# Dm A# F A# F
Verse 4
A# F
I walk the hills of West Northumberland
A# F
And I look back east across the plain
A# Dm A#
From a ring of stones to the green fields and starter homes
F A# F
And a North-East wind suggesting rain
