Dm 
I live in this country now 
 I'm called by this name 
 I speak this language 
 It's not quite the same 

     Gm 
 For no other reason 
 Than this it's my home 
 And the places I used to be 
 Far from are gone 

Dm 
 You've traveled this long 
 You just have to go on 
 Don't even look back to see 
 How far you've come 

             Gm 
 Though your body is bending 
 Under the load 
 There is nowhere to stop 
 Anywhere on this road 


Dm 
 My heart is breaking 
 I cannot sleep 
 I love a man 
 Who's afraid of me 

    Gm 
 He believes if he doesn't 
 Stand guard with a knife 
 I'll make him my slave 
 For the rest of his life 

Dm 
 I love this hour 
 When the tide is just turning 
 There will be an end 
 To the longing and yearning 

             Gm 
 If I can stand up 
 To angels and men 
 I'll never get swallowed 
 In darkness again 

Dm 
 You've traveled this long 
 You just have to go on 
 Don't even look back to see 
 How far you've come 

             Gm 
 Though your body is bending 
 Under the load 
 There is nowhere to stop 
 Anywhere on this road
