Intro:
|D     |G     |D     |G/A     |

G/A                   D                      
Did you see our brother
       Asus4           A        
He was here the other day
       F#m          Bm              Em  
But he only came to say that he was leaving
        A          D
Did you see his lady
        Asus4               A
She was looking where he'd gone
        F#m            Bm              Em      
But she wasn't letting on that she was grieving
A              D
She's bound to go
  G                                     A                      D
Perhaps she'll find him waiting for his boat in some city far away
A              G    D/F#    Em    D
She's bound to go

Asus4       D           Asus4               A 
Lately I remember afternoons of smoke and wine
          F#m              Bm                 Em      
There was nothing we could find but peace and pleasure
A                        D
And with a smile he told me
        Asus4           A         F#m            Bm             Em 
That he wanted just to be on his way across the sea no man can measure
A           D
He won't be back,
        G                                A                      D
And the sun may find him sleeping in the dust of some ruin far away
A           G    D/F#    Em    D
He won't be back

G                                              D  
Early today as I watched while the skyline was shaking
          Asus4
I heard a rumbling
G                                   D
Early today the mechanical city was waking
              Asus4
And I ran out stumbling, mumbling
Asus4                                              D   A
Out through the laughter of children and dogs

A               D
Did you see our brother
       Asus4           A
He was here the other day
       F#m          Bm                Em
But he only came to say that he can't breathe here
        A         D
Did you see his lady
        Asus4             A
She was reaching for his hand
        F#m            Bm                 Em
Just as if to tell her man that she can't either
A                D
They're bound to go
        G                             A                           D
And the sun may find me running after them, seeing something far away
A           G    D/F#    Em    D      G       D   
We won't be back


Someone who had been away
Suddenly came back today
and I allowed a hope to stray into my mind
For a moment face to face
We looked back upon the place
Where long ago he went to chase our careless time
Oh, what do you know
Not what I've been feeling
The past is healing so slow
My tomorrow Gone from sorrow


Thanks Jon, for the counter song lyrics
