Over The Hills And Far Away (acoustic)

Written by Gary Moore

	  		
Verse 
      E5 
They came for him one winter's night 
E5 
Arrested, he was bound 
E5 
They said there'd been a robbery 
E5 
His pistol had been found 

E5                       G5 
They marched him to the station house 
    E5              D5 
He waited till the dawn 
    E5               G5 
And as they led him to the dock 
    D5                  E5 
He knew that he'd been wronged 


Pre-Chorus 
    C     D/C        C      D/C 
You stand accused of robbery 
   G/D       D        G/D  D 
He heard the bailiff say 
   C       D/C      C  D/C 
He knew without an alibi 
  G/D      D           Bm         D 
Tomorrow's light would mourn his freedom
