Verse:
Am G
The vultures are flying lower than they used to
F Em Am
They don’t waste their time on old bleached bones
Am G
It’s too damned hot, and I feel choked out
F Em Am
Our past betrayed by smoke and mirrors
Am G
All she gives is a stone facade
F Em Am
Like ill-given flowers at a dead man’s wake
Am G
Here we slave for the dreams of another
F Em Am
And fight over scraps like wayward dogs
Chorus:
F Em Am
The ash under a red stone guides the way
F Em Am
The embers of his words ignite our souls
F Em Am
My love and I, we will follow
F Em Am
We’ll find our valley of the moon
Verse:
Am G
These words a mirror of his own heart
F Em Am
And to the land he gave it to
Am G
Looking back to the strength of our blood
F Em Am
A great river of fortune and will
Am G
All they gave, they gave for us
F Em Am
A better life in a better lands
Chorus:
F Em Am
The ash under a red stone guides the way
F Em Am
The embers of his words ignite our souls
F Em Am
My love and I, we will follow
F Em Am
We’ll find our valley of the moon

Verse:
Am G
A place where we can be who we are
F Em Am
And just what we were meant to be
Am G
Plain to hold and see of what we’re made
F Em Am
Spirit, sinew, blood, and soil
Am Em G
Up horses now, and straight and true
F Em Am
Let every broken furrow run
Am G
The strength you sweat shall blossom yet
F Em Am
And golden glory to the sun
Chorus:
F Em Am
The ash under a red stone guides the way
F Em Am
The embers of his words ignite our souls
F Em Am
My love and I, we will follow
F Em Am
We’ll find our valley of the moon
