VERSES
 D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD      D MajorD
Last night I dreamed that I was a child

 D MajorD      D MajorD      A augmentedA      A augmentedA
Out where the pines grow wild and tall

 D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD      D MajorD
I was trying to make it home through the forest

 D MajorD      A augmentedA      D MajorD      D MajorD
Before the darkness falls

 D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD      D MajorD
I heard the wind rustling through the trees

 D MajorD      D MajorD      A augmentedA      A augmentedA
And ghostly voices rose from the fields

 D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD      D MajorD
I ran with my heart pounding down that broken path

 D MajorD      A augmentedA      D MajorD      D MajorD
With the devil snappin at my heels


 D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD      D MajorD
I broke through the trees and there in he night

 D MajorD      D MajorD      A augmentedA      A augmentedA
My fathers house stood shining hard and bright

 D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD      D MajorD
The branches and brambles tore my clothes and scratched my arms

 D MajorD      A augmentedA      D MajorD      D MajorD
But I ran till I fell shaking in his arms

VERSES

I awoke and I imagined the hard things that pulled us apart

I got dressed and to that house I did ride

 D MajorD      A augmentedA      D MajorD      D MajorD
From out on the road I could see its windows shining in light

 D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD      D MajorD
I walked up the steps and stood on the porch

 D MajorD      D MajorD      A augmentedA      A augmentedA
A majorA woman I didnt recognize came and spoke to me through a chained door

 D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD      D MajorD
I told her my story and who Id come for

 D MajorD      A augmentedA      D MajorD      D MajorD
She said "Im sorry son but no one by that name lives here anymore"

My fathers house shines hard and bright

 D MajorD      D MajorD      A augmentedA      A augmentedA
It stands like a beacon calling me in the night

Calling and calling so cold and alone

 D MajorD      A augmentedA      D MajorD      D MajorD
Shining cross this dark highway where our sins lie unatoned
