G D
Hey Boy Blue, can't you hear all
Am
the noise.
G D
It's for you, all the town's waiting
Am
there.
G D Am
Let us go, there's a show like you ain't
C (G)
seen before.
G D
Welcome home, where you been all
Am
these years.

Look around, all the crowd is in tears.

of your town.
 
Refrão:
G D Am
Hey Boy Blue is back.
G D Am
Hey Boy Blue is back.
G D Am C G
Hey Boy Blue is back.
 
G
I've see bold knights, dropping
D Am
down like flies.
G D Am
I've see kings, rolling in the mire,
G D
I've seen God, point the finger of
Am C (G)
doom to our foes.
 
G D Am
I have fought in the holiest wars,
G
I have smashed, some of the
D Am
holiest jaws.
G D
I've been jailed, been impaled, and
Am C (G)
been dragged through the world.
 
G D
One thing, I have learned through
Am
these years,
G D
Is that no man, should be stricken
Am
with fear.
G D
It should be that he walks with no
Am C (G)
care in the world.
G D
So my friends, who are gathered
Am
today,
G D Am
Hear this clear, for I'll not further say,
G D
That no man, shall cause me to take
Am C (G)
up arms again.
 
Refrão
