MY LAND (Acoustic) ~ Sonata Arctica
Acoustic Arrangement by sinForge xJp
Standard Eb Tuning.. [1/2 step down]
This is "semi-based" on the acoustic performance w/ Tony
and Jani.. but you can only SEE so much of the guitar, so
I used the tonality heard in that performance, plus what
I already know about playing this song. ~Enjoy!!

My own land has closed its gates on me..
All alone in world, it's scaring me..
I am here to prove you wrong!!
I'm accused of something I live.. for..
In my dreamland, there's one who understands;
A friendly soul, trusting life in your hands..

Keep in mind what you have heard today,
You might find that you are not so brave
Are you man enough, carry the load all alone

My old land is but a pile of sand..
Cold and bare but something still is there..
Yes, I gave it all I can..
Now it's invaded by a stran-ger..

You might find that you are not so brave
Are you man enough, carry the load all alone

Now I am here, and I want it all back
In my dreams, I climb the hills I see, and let a
Gentle breeze lead me to plains I once have seen and
Clear blue sky, I swim in lakes I find
I build a house right there that you can't take, never take away!!
(Dm).. Bb.. Dm.. F.. C..
(Bb)
I am here to claim my land!!
(Bb)
You can't keep me away, forever
Keep in mind what you have heard today,
You might find that you are not so brave..
Are you man enough, carry the load all alone
