I know what it's like to be a stranger and divide a town beside a frontier.
[G] People want your business and li[Dm]ttle more
[Am] I've watched s[G]hadows lengthen from [Dm]a closed door.
[Dm] [Am] [G]
Mountains wide[Dm], nothing is clearer to the River People than what the others try and hide.
[Dm] [Am] [G]
You spoke, pu[Dm]shed your chair back at the meeting and I could tell that you were petrified.
[G] You said the best people can suddenly o[Dm]ppose
[Am] The sight of [G]good will and then it [Dm]arose.
[G] Two people, four people crossed the [Dm]floor
[Am] I saw children [G]run, I wept amidst [Dm]the uproar
