As I returned across the fields I'd known
I recognized the walls that I once made
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid
Chorus:
Dm C Am C
And if I built this fortress around your heart
Dm C Am C
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Dm C Am C
Then let me build a bridge, for I cannot fill the chasm
Dm c Am c
And let me set the battlements on fire
Part D: play riff #1 throughout the section below.
Then I went off to fight some battle
That I'd invented inside my head

Away so long for years and years

While the armies all are sleeping
Beneath the tattered flag we made
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid
Repeat Chorus

This prison has now become your home
A sentence you seem prepared to pay

It took a day to build the city
We walked through it's streets this afternoon
Part I: play riff #3 throughout the section below.
As I returned across the lands I'd known
I recognized the fields where I'd once played
I had to stop in my tracks fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid
Repeat Chorus
