G Am7 And in the quiet hours, we talk before the dawn. verse 2: Am C G F And the old hearts, they are calling from the shadows. F Em7 F Telling us we must not go, G F Oh but we cannot fight, the power of the gun, G F G To take away our land, they take it from our sons, swear it on my hands. Chorus: C G We will return to run here like the wolf, F G And see the hunter's moon and watch our river flow, Am7 It's not gone forever. verse 3: Am C G F Oh my bold hearts, we will go down to the city. F Em7 F We will live by city light. G Am7 But in the darkest hour, keep this fire alive. verse 4: Am C G F We will grow strong, we will bring our wealth together. F Em7 F Never showing what we have, G F And when the time has come, we'll reach out for the gun. G F G Taking back our land, take it for our sons, swear it on my hands. Chorus: C G We will return to run here like the wolf, F G And see the hunter's moon and watch our river flow. C G We will return to touch the open sky, F G And see the eagle fly and feel the morning rain. Am7 D Am7 D Am7 D F G Am7 It's not gone forever...
