G           C                 G    C G
Lying, a dreamer, dreaming beside me
      C                   G   C G
The city sirens keep me awake
     D
And I know
                           C G C   G C G
I’ll see you again in the long run


[Verse 2]

(Chords follow this pattern for the rest of the song)

People they tell me I should be careful
That you’ll worry, and I’m already miles away

But I know
I’ll see you again in the long run
And I know
I’ll meet you again in the long run


[Chorus]

    Em             D
But we can’t be lovers
        G
‘Cause I’m still afraid
      Em         D
Of leaving the things I love dearly.

I wander, I roam, I write home to tell you
That I’m sorry,
I won’t leave it this late again.

But I know
I’ll see you again in the long run
And I know
I’ll meet you again in the long run

But I can’t be married
You’ll take me away
From everything that I love dearly
And we can’t be lovers


[Outro]

                              C
You’ll take me away from my home
    F
My home
    D
My home
