## NOTE: ~ ~ = Walk-Down from F to C ##
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[VERSE 1:]
C Em7 F G
They saved their plan for my childhood
Am G F G
And soaked up the tears of the young
Am G F ~ ~ C
They saved their plans for my boy-hoy-y-hood
Dm G
And to it's snug safety, I had clung
[VERSE 2:]
C Em7 F G
I was learning the countryman's instinct
Am G F G
And learnt to be one with the soil
Am G F ~ ~ C
Growing wheat in the heart and ambi-i-i-tion
Dm G
But growing strong from the backbreaking toil
[CHORUS:]
F G C
Bounded in by the fences and feelings
F G
Always wary, not free for to fly
F C/E F ~ ~ C
Dreaming of further hori-i-i-zons
Dm7 G C
Where the hills of the west meet the sky
[VERSE 3:]
C Em7 F G
I was tied to the family traditions
Am G F G
To the way things always had been
Am G F ~ ~ C
Never learnt from the birds flying sou-o-outhwards
Dm G
That there's vistas I have never seen
[VERSE 4:]
C Em7 F G
And I was blind to the wandering notion
Am G F G
And blind to feelings of due
Am G F ~ ~ C
I sacrificed youth for my du-u-u-ty
Dm G
My freedom, I owe it to you
[CHORUS:]
F G C
Bounded in by the fences and feelings

Always wary, not free for to fly

Bb F C
Oh, the hills of the west they are calling
Bb F G
I follow the sun in your eyes
Am Am7 F
The future I'll take as I find it
Dm G
My ears are deaf to your cries
[VERSE 5:]
C Em7 F G
Now, where were you to sharpen my vision
Am G F G
Where were you to show me a dream
Am G F ~ ~ C
They showed me a reason for cha-a-an-ging
Dm G
But so much time has gone away in the stream
[VERSE 6:]
C Em7 F G
And I'll follow you down to the west woods
Am G F G
And leave all my kinfolk behind
Am G F ~ ~ C
As I take that last look behi-i-nd me
Dm G
What's before me, will be in my mind
[CHORUS:]
F G C
Bounded in by the fences and feelings

Always wary, not free for to fly

Dreaming of further hori-i-i-zons

Where the hills of the west meet the sky
