Sooo.. I can't remember what the last chord was called.. I think I've never learned it by name so right now
I named it C2.

Intro
Em, D, G, C2, C x3
Mmmmm mmm mmmm


Verse      For this verse only strum the chords once
Em                                       G
With a tiny rope and a bag of stones and all heartbroken wishingbone
     C2                      C
She's going in, she's going home
Em                        D G
Oh this little golden eye
                              C2                C
Fighting heavy day behind the light, behind the light


Verse      For this verse only strum the chords once
Em                                  G
Walking faster down the street, red eyes and no shoes on her feet
C2                       C
Going on this journey, determent to complete.
Em
This is farewell, this is goodnight
    G                              C2
The last time she will see the daylight
            C
See the daylight


Chorus
          C                G
And she's going on a journey
       Em                   D
Always walking down the road
        C                    G
And the water is always calling
          Em                     D
My little child, please come home


Verse
                Em     D   G
That's when she went away
               C2          C
Away from the light of day


Verse
Em
Standing by the riverside
G                                   C2
Patientelly waiting for the tide to come along
         C
To come along
Em                                   G                            C2
The water going through her feet and on her body wind so cold and sweet
            C
So cold and sweet


Chorus
          C                G
And she's going on a journey
       Em                   D
Always walking down the road
        C                    G
And the water is always calling
          Em                     D
My little child, please come home


Chorus 2
        C                      G
And the stars were brightly shining
          Em                   D
When she reached out they were gone
        C               G
And the water started calling
          Em                     D
My little child, please come home


Bridge    Only strum once for each chord
Em                          G
Feel the water in her body, water's never going out
C2                          C
Feel the water in her body, water's never going out
Em                          G
Feel the water in her body, water's never going out
C2                          C                         start the regular strum pattern again on the last C
Feel the water in her body, water's never going out


Chorus

And she's going on a journey
       Em                   D
Always walking down the road
        C                    G
And the water is always calling
          Em                     D
My little child, please come home


Chorus 2
        C                      G
And the stars were brightly shining
          Em                   D
When she reached out they were gone
        C               G
And the water started calling
          Em                     D
My little child, please come home


Outro   only strum each chord once
       Em
When a shiny light hit her eye
        G                                     C2
And she turned around and climbed towards the sky
            C
Towards the sky
