Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am][A][Am]
I have come
to a foreign shore
[Dm]Looks familiar,
I've been [Am]here before
There's my family, there's my house
But [Dm]we don't belong here,
we've [Am]got ta get out
I'm [E]a n[Am]ewborn baby,
I've just been born
[Dm]I'm ducking and dodging

[Verse 2]
through tall stalks of corn
[Am]I'll take the job if the money's good
But [Dm]an ancient strain
runs in my [E]blood
[Am]Forgotten language plays in my mind
[Dm]I'm always searching for a word
I just can't find
[Am]Wouldn't make it a day out here,
I couldn't get by
Without [Dm]this underground
network on which [E]I rely
[Am]Change

[Verse 3]
goes on in [C]semi- darkness
[G]Long shadows in the all[Am]ey
at dawn
Those who sow will [C]soon harvest
[G]Those who rule will soon be
[Am]leaving the throne

[Verse 4]
We travel in tandem, [Am]we blend right in
But [Dm]we lock eyes when we pass,
a small nod of the chin
[Am]Suitcase in the closet,
supplies in the drawer
[Dm]

[Verse 5]
There may come a day when
you'll see us no more
[Am]I look calm and collected,
I seem at ease
But in my [Dm]mind,
the water's up past my knees
[Am]We're playing the long game,

[Verse 6]
[Am]
we're playing for keeps
[Dm]We're drawing our plans up
[Bb]while the enemy [Dm]sleep[E]s
[Am]The fire is lit now, cat's out of the cage
[Dm]We stand in the

[Verse 7]
half- light at
the edge of the stage
[Am]You won't know it's happening
'til it's already done
[Dm]And the queen in the shadows
[Am]steps [Dm]into the [E]sun
[Am]Change goes on in [C]semi- darkness

[Verse 8]
[G]Long shadows in the [Am]alley
at dawn
Those who sow will [C]soon harvest
[G]Those who rule will soon
be [Am]leaving the throne
