Em D
They came for him one winter's night.
Em D
Arrested, he was bound.
Em D
They said there'd been a robbery,
C D Em
his pistol had been found.
Em G
They marched him to the station house,
Em D
he waited for the dawn.
Em G
And as they led him to the dock,
D Em
he knew that he'd been wronged.
C D Em D
"You stand accused of robbery,"
G D Em D
he heard the bailiff say.
C D Em D
He knew without an alibi,
G D Bm D
tomorrow's light would mourn his freedom --
Em G D Em
Over the hills and far away,
D G C D
for ten long years he'll count the days.
Em G D Em
Over the mountains and the seas,
D G C D
a prisoner's life for him there'll be.
Em G
He knew that it would cost him dear,
Em D
but yet he dare not say.
Em G
Just where he'd been that fateful night,
D Em
a secret it must stay.
C D Em D
He had to fight back tears of rage.
G D Em D
His heart beat like a drum.
C D Em D
For with the wife of his best friend,
G D Bm D
he spent his final night of freedom --
Em G D Em
Over the hills and far away,
D G C D
for ten long years he'll count the days.
Em G D Em
Far from the mountains and the seas,
D G C D
a prisoner's life for him there'll be.
Em G D Em D
Over the hills and far away,
Em
Over the hills and,
over the hills and,
D
over the hills and far away.
Solo
C D Em D
Each night within his prison cell,
G D Em D
he looks out through the bars.
C D Em D
He reads the letters that she wrote.
G D Bm D
One day he'll know the taste of freedom --
Em G D Em
Over the hills and far away,
D G C D
she prays he will return one day.
Em G D Em
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
D G C D
back in his arms again she'll be.
