Em Em                             D D 
They came for him one winter's night.
Em Em D D
Arrested, he was bound.
Em Em D D
They said there'd been a robbery,
C C D D Em Em
his pistol had been found.


Em Em G G
They marched him to the station house,
Em Em D D
he waited for the dawn.
Em Em G G
And as they led him to the dock,
DEm
he knew that he'd been wronged.
CD Em Em D D
"You stand accused of robbery,"
G G D D Em Em D D
he heard the bailiff say.
C C D D Em Em D D
He knew without an alibi,
G G D D Bm Bm D D
tomorrow's light would mourn his freedom --


Em Em G G D D Em Em
Over the hills and far away,
D D G G C C D D
for ten long years he'll count the days.
Em Em G G D D Em Em
Over the mountains and the seas,
D D G G C C D D
a prisoner's life for him there'll be.

Em EmG G
He knew that it would cost him dear,
Em Em D D
but yet he dare not say.
Em Em G G
Just where he'd been that fateful night,
D D Em Em
a secret it must stay.
CD Em Em D D
He had to fight back tears of rage.
G G D D Em Em D D
His heart beat like a drum.
C C D D Em Em D D
For with the wife of his best friend,
G G D D Bm Bm D D
he spent his final night of freedom --


Em Em G G D D Em Em
Over the hills and far away,
D D G G C C D D
for ten long years he'll count the days.
Em Em G G D D Em Em
Far from the mountains and the seas,
D D G G C C D D
a prisoner's life for him there'll be.
Em Em G G D D Em Em D D
Over the hills and far away,
Em Em
Over the hills and,

over the hills and,
D D
over the hills and far away.


Solo

CD Em Em D D
Each night within his prison cell,
G G D D Em Em D D
he looks out through the bars.
C C D D Em Em D D
He reads the letters that she wrote.
G G D D Bm Bm D D
One day he'll know the taste of freedom --


Em Em G G D D Em Em
Over the hills and far away,
D D G G C C D D
she prays he will return one day.
Em Em G G D D Em Em
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
D D G G C C D D
back in his arms again she'll be.



F#m F#m A A E E F#m F#m
Over the hills and far away,
E E A A D D E E
she prays he will return one day.
F#m F#m A A E E F#m F#m
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
E E A A D D E E
back in his arms again she'll be.


F#m F#m A A E E F#m F#m
Over the hills and far away,
E E A A D D E E
she prays he will return one day.
F#m F#m A A E E F#m F#m
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
E E A A D D E E
back in his arms again she'll be.
