Don’t be afraid to care

Leave, but don’t leave me

Look around, choose your own ground

For long you live and high you fly

Smiles you’ll give and tears you’ll cry

And all you touch and all you see

G F Eb Em

Is all your life will ever be

Run, rabbit, run

Dig that hole, forget the sun

Em A

And when at last the work is done

Em A

Don’t sit down it’s time to dig another one

For long you live and high you’ll fly

But only if you ride the tide

And balanced on the biggest wave

You race towards an early grave

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day

Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown

Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine,

Amaj7

Staying home to watch the rain

Ten years have got behind you

No one told you when to run

The sun is the same in a relative way, but you’re older

E F#m

Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Dmaj7

Every year is getting shorter

Amaj7

Never seem to find the time

Dmaj7

Plans that either come to naught

Amaj7

Or half a page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way

The time is gone, the song is over

D F Eb Em

Thought I’d something more to say

Em A

Home, home again

Em A

I like to be here when I can

Em A

And when I come home cold and tired

Em A

It’s good to warm my bones beside the fire

Cmaj7

And far away across the field

The tolling of the iron bell

Calls the fateful to their knees

G F Eb Bm

To hear the softly spoken magic spell
