[Bm]Driven

[Verse 1]
out of [D]Nor[G]way
[A]To Iceland we set [C#m]sail
[Bm]My father then went furt[D]her[G]
To [D]a place [A]where we'd be saf[D]e[C#m]
[Bm]The barren soil of Green[D]land[G]
Could [D]not [A]sustain our [C#m]clan
[Bm]We needed to go west[D]ward[G]
To [D]find [A]a bet[D]ter[C#m]
[Bb5]land[Bb][A5][G][F#5]

[Verse 2]
We [Bm]soar upon the wings of [G]eagles
We [D]fly across the open [A]sea
We [Bm]leave the rugged shores of [G]Greenland
For a [D]realm, a land, [A]where we can be free

[F#5]Then

[Verse 3]
[Bm]on an ex[D]pediti[G]on
[A]After days at [C#m]sea[Bm]
We saw on the ho[D]rizon
[G]A l[A]and of woods and fiel[D]d s[C#m][Bm]
I would be the [D]first [G]man
To [A]tread these newfound [C#m]land s[Bm]
Here we'd build our [D]new [G]life
Our [A]future was in [D]our [C#m]own ha[C#5]nds[Bb5][A5][G][F#5][Em]

[Bm][B5][Bm][G]
[D][A5][F#5][Bm][C][C5][A][D][Bm]
[G][D][B5][Bm][B5][C][A]

[Verse 4]
[D]Forty [Bm]years of hard work
[G]Struggling to sur[D]vive
Fighting [Bm]hard to tame the land
To [C]make our people [Am]thrive[A]
[Em]At first, we made some progress
In the end, [C]we were too [A]few
Our [Em]settlement decreased
And [D]disillusion [Bm]grew
[B5]After [Bm]all [Em]these years of struggle
Of [C]blood, tears, sweat and [A]pain
We [Em]had to leave our newfound land
Our [D]efforts were in vain

[Interlude 3]

[C][D][Em][Am][A][D]
[Em][C][D][F#5]

[Verse 5]
We [Bm]soared upon the wings of [G]eagles
We [D]flew across the open [A]waves
Our [Bm]hearts yearned for the taste of [G]freedom
[D]To Vinland's shores we did set [A]sail
[D]Sai[Bm]ling west we found our new[G] land
We [D]tried to build a better [A]life
But we [Bm]had to go back to old G[G]reenland
After [D]years of hard [A]work and futile strife
