ForGever you'll be eyes of Dblue
In the Gcircle of your Cyouth
Picking Gevery blade of Dtruth
Down the Newton Croad__D_G

War is over and the Emboys come home
CFrom the fighting, from the fightingG  
Love letters and a Emgreat unknown

CTo the dancing, to the dancingG  
A lot of loving and a Emlot of soul
CTurning aDgain
