                    E       F#
These mist covered mountains
                  B Bsus4 B
Are home now for me
        D#m        G#m     D#m
But my home is the low lands
                 E F#sus4 F#
And always will be

Some day you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn
To be brothers in arms

Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged higher

And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms

G#m        F#             G#m   B  F#
There's so many different worlds
    B              E   F#
So many different suns
    F#               G#m    F#
And we have just one world
        B                E
But we live in different ones

Now the sun's gone to hell
And the moon riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die

But it's written in the starlight
And every line in your palm
We're fools to make war
On our brothers in arms
