Van Diemen's Land U2
U2 ? Van Diemen's Land
Capo 4
Intro
[G5] [D] [A] [D] [G5-D]
Verse
Hold me now, oh hold me now
[D] [G5] [D] [G5] [D]
Till this hour has gone around
[Bm] [G5] [A] [Asus4] [A]
And I'm gone on the rising tide
[F#m] [Bm] [G5]
For to face Van Diemen's land
[D] [A] [D] [G5] [D]
It's a bitter pill I swallow here
[D] [G5] [D] [G5] [D]
To be rent from one so dear
[Bm] [G5] [A] [Asus4] [A]
We fought for justice and not for gain
[F#m] [Bm] [G5]
But the magistrate sent me away
[D] [A] [D] [G5] [D]
Now kings will rule and the poor will toil
[D] [G5] [D] [G5] [D]
And tear their hands as they tear the soil
[Bm] [G5] [A]
But a day will come in the dawning age
[F#m] [Bm] [G5]
When an honest man sees an honest wage
[D] [A] [D] [G5] [D]
Hold me now, hold me now
[D] [G5] [D] [G5] [D]
Till this hour has gone around
[Bm] [G5] [A]
And I'm gone on the rising tide
[F#m] [Bm] [G5]
For to face Van Diemen's land
[D] [A] [D] [G5] [D]
Still the gunman rules and widows pay
A scarlet coat now a black beret
They thought that blood and sacrifice
Could out of death bring forth a life
