Over The Hills And Far Away chords by Gary Moore

Guitar chords with lyrics


Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse:
   Em
They came for him one winter's night
Em
Arrested, he was bound
Em
They said there'd been a robbery
Em
His pistol had been found

Em            G
They marched him to the station house
  Em       D
He waited till the dawn
  Em        G
And as they led him to the dock
  D          Em
He knew that he'd been wronged

Pre-Chorus:
  C   D/C    C   D/C
You stand accused of robbery

Tomorrow's light would mourn his freedom


Chorus:
Em    G     D   Em
Over the hills and far away

For ten long years, he'll count the days
Em    G     D    Em
Over the mountains and the seas
 D      G    C      D  Em
A prisoner's life for him there'll be


Verse:
  Em         G
He knew that it would cost him dear

But yet he dare not say
   Em           G
Just where he had been that fateful night
  D       Em
A secret, it must stay

His heart beat like a drum

   G/D    D         D
He'd spent his final night of freedom


Chorus:
Em    G     D  Em
Over the hills and far away

He swears he will return one day
Em      G     D    Em
Far from the mountains and the seas
   D    G  C     D
Back in her arms again he’ll be

Over the hills and far away_______

Over the hills and, over the hills and
Dadd4             Em  Em G Em D Em G D Em
Over the hills and far away___


Bridge:
   Cmaj7   D/C   C   D/C
Each night within his prison cell
  G/D    D     G/D  D
He looks out through the bars
  Cmaj7   D/C  C     D/C
He reads the letters that she wrote
  G/D    D    Bm    D
One day he'll know the taste of freedom


Chorus:
Em    G     D  Em
Over the hills and far away
  D     G   C    D
She prays he will return one day
  Em    G     D     Em
As sure as the rivers reach the seas

Back in his arms again she'll be
