Intro:

C C

Verse 1:
C                        Em
Everybody's going someday
F                      Em
To find the light that gives us life
C                          Em
In the golden hour of that dying day
F                         G
Everything we ever wanted we will give away

Chorus:
C                Em
Around that bend in the road
F                Em
We wind our way, letting go
C               Em
One brief sigh, looking back
F                      G
Returning to the heart at last

Verse 2:
C                                    Em
And through the forests fireflies in June
F                     Em
The pain we felt, the joy we knew
C                               Em
To the clearing we will come at last
F                     G
And when we get there we will dance

Chorus:
C                  Em
We leave our bones beneath the sun
F                    Em
We'll join our souls with everyone's
C               Em
One brief sigh, looking back
F                      G
Returning to the heart at last

Outro:
C                    Em
Farewell (farewell), farewell (farewell)
F                           G
Someone knew your heart and loved you well
C                    Em
Farewell (farewell), farewell (farewell)
F                                 G
Someone cries and rivers rise and swell
C         Em
Farewell, farewell
Am                                   F
The sun will climb above the tolling bell
    G        C
For you, farewell
