[Intro] Bm
Bm                                         G               Em
Her point of view was radical, more than just a change of plan 

Bm                     D                         G
She sold me her proposal which I did not understand 

  A                    D                                 G
She said the secret's in the road, I tried to decode the signs 

                      Bm                A 
And followed her for seven years, all eyes and ears 

      G          Em    F#                 Bm      A G A
Our destinies entwined... our destinies entwined 

Bm                               G               Em
The new land lay like Eden underneath my hungry feet 

Bm                     D                         G
Its trees were tall, its people all so noble in defeat 

  A                D                                    G
Men were digging, men were building, men were killing time 

                      Bm           A 
I took a spade and volunteered, a pioneer 

      G          Em    F#                 Bm      A G A
Our destinies entwined... our destinies entwined 

Bm                                         G          Em
I made a stand on principle but I had not grasped the facts 

Bm                 D                             G
One folly breeds another, I made all the wrong contacts 

A                       D                              G
I fell in with strange company for their armour it did shine 

                 Bm                A 
I took the only path I knew, they took it too

      G          Em    F#                 Bm      A G A
Our destinies entwined... our destinies entwined 

Bm                                         G                 Em
While all men shouted black is white, and swore that good is ill 

Bm                     D                           G
I saw three crosses pierce the sky above a distant hill 

  A                     D                                    G
The sky burned red as I turned my head and I left that scene behind 

                      Bm                A 
I took another god to be my guide, the one inside 

      G          Em    F#                 Bm      A G A
Our destinies entwined... our destinies entwined 

Bm                               G               Em
I lay in bed and as I stumbled from the vale of sleep 

Bm                  D                                G
Across the theatre of my mind a passing thought did creep 

  A                   D                            G
That love is all and all is love, love infinitely kind 

                             Bm            A 
I woke and glimpsed through prison bars a billion stars 

      G          Em    F#                 Bm      A G A
Our destinies entwined... our destinies entwined
