1. EAST
[Cm]I travel from the west…and enter eastern land.
A place of aging history…and of iron hands.
I’m looked upon with question…as to why I’m here.
But welcomed by a karma…that is warm & pure.
Pray…I’m offered a [Bm]stay.
Planting seeds of [Gm]new days.
And [G#]show this world a western-way.
And [A#]live a life of blessed aim.
I’ll [Gm]make the east a claim.
[Cm]Please…grant what I [Bm]need.
Touch and taste what [A#]I’ve seen.
[G#]Prove just what I want to be.
[Gm]Pay the price of roaming free.
My west [Cm]is pointing…East.
Forbidden in the past…but now an open door.
With youth embracing all…who honor those before.
A place that’s full of fruit and silk and gold to bear.
And family-bond resides…above all other cares.
[Cm]Pray…I’m offered a [Bm]stay.
Planting seeds of [A#]new days.
And [G#]show this world a western-way.
And [Gm]live a life of blessed aim.
I’ll make the east a claim.
[Cm]Please…grant what I [Bm]need.
Touch and taste what’s [A#]I’ve seen.
Prove just what I want to be.
[G#]Pay the price of roaming free.
My [Gm]west is pointing...East.
The east [C]is where I’ll stay.
I’ve [G]done away with western ways…I’m [Am]gone.
From the [F]west and all I [G]thought was wrong.
So [C]wave and say goodbye.
And [G]wish me luck with where I [Am]will go.
And smile… [F]cause I’ve made my
[G]peace, in the east. ….The [C]east.
[Cm]Pray…I’m offered a [Bm]stay.
Planting seeds of [A#]new days.
And [G#]show this world a western-way.
And [Gm]live a life of blessed aim.
I’ll make the east a claim.
[Cm]Please…grant what I [Bm]need.
Touch and taste what’s [A#]I’ve seen.
Prove just what I want to be.
[G#]Pay the price of roaming free.
My west is pointing... [Gm]East.
