By my side (video) (midi)

Dm ~

Dm - C Am

1. Where are you going? Where are you going?

Dm C - Am

Can you take me with you?

Dm C - Am

For my hand is cold and needs warmth.

Dm ~

Where are you going?

C Dm

Far beyond where the horizon lies,

C

where the horizon lies, and the land sinks into

D C D

mellow blueness, oh, please, take me with you.

C D - C D

Let me skip the road with you, I can dare myself, I can dare myself.

C D C D

I'll put a pebble in my shoe, and watch me walk, I can walk and walk.

Dm C Am Dm

2. I shall call the pebble Dare, I shall call pebble Dare,

C - Am

we’ll talk together about walking.

Dm C Am

Dare shall be carried, and when both have had enough,

Dm - C Am

I will take him from my shoe, singing, "Meet your new road."

Dm C Am

Then I'll take your hand, finally glad, finally glad,

Dm - C Am

that you are here by my side, by my si…de, by my side,

Dm - C Am

by my side, by my si….de, by my side,

Dm - C Am

by my side, that you are he…re by my side.
