Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

[Chorus]

Em       D
Outside over there
Em                 D
Where the war was raging
Em                D    
Run little child far from home
    C         D         Em             
the lord will take you with him


[Verse 1]
   Em                D
As mushrooms high as mountains
          C               Em
Came from neptunes submarines
   Em                D
A little girl named Ida
           C               Em
Lived in a shack up by the sea
    Em            D
Her daddy was away at war
     C                 Em
Her mother'd lost her mind
   Em          D            C    D   Em
So Ida in the arbour softly sang her lullaby
C                              C                  Em
To hush her baby sister and to calm her mother's shakes
    Em              D                C     D        Em
And by the waves a-crashing for her father she would wait


[Verse 2]
Em                D           C                   Em 
One evening Ida sang her songs soft as May breeze blows
       Em                 D              C           Em
When a blinding flash of light came her eyes began to close
Em                D                C              Em   
Devil's in their hooded cloaks through the window climbed
Em                     D               C        D      Em
They took her sister from her crib and ran off into the night
C                                        C            Em
When Ida looked to check the crib when finally she arose,
Em               D           C       D      Em
She saw a figure made of ice melting by the stove


[Chorus]
Em       D
Outside over there
Em                 D
Where the war was raging
Em                D    
Run little child far from home
    C         D         Em             
the lord will take you with him


[Verse 3]
Em                    D           C                   Em
Ida put on her mother's coat and walked out to the cliffs,
     Em                   D           C                    Em   
The sky was scarred with napalm the hills were drowned with mist
Em                 D                   C            Em  
She buried a rose in the ground and started up the road
   Em              D                C      D        Em
To find her sister in the night and safely bring her home
            C                                 C               Em
There were soldiers in the twilight, thieves drinking by the caves
          C                   D                     C        D         Em
She just listened out for her daddy's voice to come drifting across the waves


[Verse 4]
Em                         D                 C                 Em
On the edge of Neptune's kingdom there was a forest and it was said,
     Em            D                C          Em
That any man that went in there was never seen again,
     Em              D                C                      Em
But Ida clutched her mother's coat and pressed on through the trees,
      Em              D                 C       D       Em
For in the ground she saw the tracks of wretched Devil's feet
C                                   C                Em
The path ahead grew fainter as the branches tied in knots
    Em            D              C       D     Em
And Ida felt like every step she took was being watched


[Chorus]
Em       D
Outside over there
Em                 D
Where the war was raging
Em                D    
Run little child far from home
    C         D         Em             
the lord will take you with him


[Verse 5]
Em                     D          C              Em
There deep among the wild wood the girl began to tire
         Em            D             C                Em
When she came across a cabin windows flickered with a fire
     Em               D             C                  Em
She knocked upon the wooden door an old man showed his face
Em                      D             C      D       Em   
With kind eyes like her father's and a beard long and grey
     C                                               Em
She saw her sister sleeping near two angels wearing hoods
   Em                     D              C      D       Em
She had some supper then slept a while to dream about the woods.
      Em                    D                   C                  Em
After three days passed the mist had cleared the sky was clear and bright,
     Em                     D      C              Em
She took her sister in her arms and bid the man goodbye
     Em                    D           C               Em
She ran back through the forest saw no soldiers nor no thieves,
     Em                   D           C      D     Em  
Till she found herself back up at the shack by the sea
        C                                               Em
But when she flung her arms around her mother she shed tears
        Em             D                      C     D      Em    
For the woman stood before her was blind and aged by thirty years
          Em             D       C            Em                 
She said "Oh my darling Ida, my wait is at an end,
          Em              D                  C         D   Em
As this rose bush grew I prayed each day that we would meet again",
         C                                            Em 
So they sat out in the evening and the sun shone all around
      Em             D                 C      D   Em
Till early the next morning when their bodies were found.


[Chorus]
Em       D
Outside over there
Em                 D
Where the war was raging
Em                D    
Run little child far from home
    C         D         Em             
the lord will take you with him
