Through the shadows, dark as shame
I can still hear your voice falling down with the rain
Washing memories from the trees

'Til this road's covered over and lost in the leaves

Careless children, fresh as sin
I was your trouble when you were my friend
Sweet as rain on hallowed ground
One endless summer that ended somehow

CHORUS:
         G                   Em
Heal the old wounds, lay me down
         F                 D
Take me home to hallowed ground
        G             Em
On the water, on the wind
            F             D
Where the dream is born again
F  C            G
Whoa, carry me home

Walked the long road 'til I found
Each step took me further from where I was bound
Bruised and broken in my soul
Longing for something that we used to know
Hoo hoo-oo, hoo

REPEAT CHORUS

              Em                       C                       G
And we were chasing the grey wind and wasting our days in the sun
      Em                    C                       D   Dsus4
But stand and deliver, and peace like a river will run
 

Walked the long road 'til I found
Each step took me further from where I was bound
Hoo, hoo-oo, hoo

REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
FADE ON G
