Long Journey Home(Anthem) - Elvis Costello[00:00:00]

Written by：Elvis Costello/Paddy Moloney[00:00:02]

If on every ocean the ship is a throne[00:00:06]

And for each mast cut down[00:00:13]

Another sapling is grown[00:00:18]

Then I could believe that I'm bound to find[00:00:23]

A better life than I left behind[00:00:29]

But as you ascend the ladder[00:00:37]

Look out below where you tread[00:00:43]

For the colors bled as they overflowed[00:00:49]

Red white and blue[00:00:56]

Green white and gold[00:00:59]

So I had to leave from my country of birth[00:01:11]

As for each child grown tall[00:01:19]

Another lies in the earth[00:01:24]

And for every rail we laid in the loam[00:01:30]

There's a thousand miles of the long journey home[00:01:35]

But as you ascend the ladder[00:01:43]

Look out below where you tread[00:01:49]

For the colors bled as they overflowed[00:01:55]

Red white and blue[00:02:02]

Green white and gold[00:02:05]

But as you ascend the ladder[00:02:40]

Look out below where you tread[00:02:46]

For the colors bled as they overflowed[00:02:52]

Red white and blue[00:02:59]

Green white and gold[00:03:01]

But as you ascend the ladder[00:03:35]

Look out below where you tread[00:03:41]

For the colors bled as they overflowed[00:03:47]

Red white and blue[00:03:53]

Green white and gold[00:03:56]
