[Intro] B (atmospheric droning) Oh, how I long for heaven in a place called earth Where every son and daughter will know their worth Where all the streets resound with thunderous joy Oh how I long for heaven in a place called earth [Verse 1] Bm A G Oh, the wars we haven't won G F#m7 Em Oh, the songs we've left unsung Em F#m7 G Oh, the dreams we haven't seen F#m7 G The border lines Bm And here we are between all A G of our hopes and fear G F#m7 Em Chasing down these stolen years Em F#m7 G Reaching out for hands unseen F#m7 G F#m7 G On the borderlines, the borderlines [Chorus] Bm Oh, how I long for heaven A G in a place called earth G Where every son and daughter F#m7 Em would know their worth Em Where all the streets resound A D with thunderous joy D Oh how I long for heaven A G in a place called earth
