[Intro] G Bm Em Bm Em C Am D [Verse]
  G                  C                D            G
I sing the praise of honoured wars of glory and of kings

               C             D                  G
The bravery of soldiers, the joy that peace can bring

    C                 G             Am               D
The captains on their way home, the ribbons on their chests

        G       D       G   C         G        D       G
They've packed away the firearms, the trumpets laid to rest
[Verse]
                     C                 D              G
They've taken in the battlefields with one last weary breath

                        C                    D                       G
And set their sights on something new, while there's still something left

    C             G         Am               D
The poets and the dreamers, thank the stars above

    G       D      G      C        G        D        G
For leaving hatred in the dust and bringing back the love
[Chorus]
C             G
Over land and over sea

C                G

                     C              D                        G
The flowers laughing in the fields, boast colours bright and new

                  C               D                  G
A hint of freedom in the air, the chimes are ringing true

        C               G            Am              D
They're bringing in the New Year and ringing out the old

G     D       G     C            G      D          G
Beckoning the springtime, though winter winds blow cold
[Chorus]

Over land and over sea
