Green & Grey - New Model Army (Thunder and Consolation)
_______________________________________________________
[ intro: baven't figured it out yet, sorry ] 
[ verse 1:] 
The t[Dm]ime I think most c[C]learly
The t[Bb]ime I drift aw[Dm]ay
Is on the b[Dm]usride that mea[C]nders
Up these v[Bb]alleys of green and g[Dm]rey
I[Dm] get to think about what m[C]ight have been
And w[Bb]hat may yet come t[Dm]rue
A[Dm]nd I get to pass these r[C]ainy miles
T[Bb]hinking of y[Dm]ou
[ bridge 1: ] 
A[Bb]nd all the while, [B]all the while
I[Am] still hear that c[Am]all
From the l[Bb]and of gold and p[B]oison
That b[Am]eckons to us a[Am]ll
[ verse 2: ] 
Nothing changes here very much
You used to say it never will
The pubs are all full on friday nights
And things get started still
You spend hours last week with Billy-boy
Bleeding, yeah queueing in casualty
Stare at those posters we used to laugh at
In heaven neverland, palmtrees by the sea
[ bridge 2: I'm not quite sure of the chords here, but
anyway, it's possible to sing along.]
There was n[Bb]o need for these guys to h[Am]urt him so bad
When all they h[Dm]ad to do was knock him d[Am]own
But noone a[Bb]sks too many questions, [Am]not anymore
S[Dm]ince you left this t[Am]own
[ Cborus: ] 
And tom[F]orrow brings ano[C]ther train
Another y[Am]oung brave steals aw[Bb]ay
But y[F]ou're the one I rem[C]ember
From these v[Am]alleys of the green and the g[Bb]rey
[ Verse 3: ] 
You used to talk about winners and losers all the time
As if that was all there was
As if we were not of the same blood family
As if we live by different laws
Do you owe so much less to these rain swept hills
Than you owe to your good self
Is it true that the world has always got to be
Something that seems to happen somewhere else
[ Bridge 3: Same as Bridge 2 ] 
Oh, for god sake why don't you realize
That I still hear that call
Do you think you're so brave to just start running
To that which beckons to us all
[ Cborus: ] 
And tomorrow ...
[ Instr. break: Just play Dm at the right moments, then start
to shout ...]
[ End: Cbords of Cborus ] 
Oooh, not for one s[F]econd did you look beh[C]ind you
When y[Am]ou were walking aw[Bb]ay
Never o[F]nce did you wish a[C]ny of us well
T[Am]hose who had chosen to [Bb]stay
And if t[F]hat's what it takes to m[C]ake it
In the p[Am]lace where you live to[Bb]day
Then I g[F]uess you'll never read these l[C]etters that I've sent
From the v[Am]alleys of the green and the [Bb]grey
V[Dm]alleys of the g[C]reen and the g[Dm]rey

There was no need for these guys to hurt him so bad
When all they had to do was knock him down
But noone asks too many questions, not anymore
Since you left this town

[ End: Cbords of Cborus ] 
Oooh, not for one second did you look behind you
When you were walking away
Never once did you wish any of us well
Those who had chosen to stay
And if that's what it takes to make it
In the place where you live today
Then I gu[G]ess you'll never read these let[D]ters that I've sent
>[Bm]From the valleys of the green[C] and the grey [C]
V[Bm]alleys of the g[Am]reen and the gr[Em]ey
That's the way it should go I think, at least to me it
sounds pretty good.
What do you think?
