Intro: Am A2 Am A2 A9
The intro progression repeats as is until after your way home
Am A2 Am
Listen to the tales and romanticize
A2 A9
How we'd follow the path of the hero
Am A2 Am
Boast about the day when the rivers overrun
A2 A9
How we rise to the height of our halo
Am A2 Am
Listen to the tales as we all rationalize
A2 A9
Our way into the arms of the savior
Am A2 Am
Feigning all the trials and the tribulations
A2 A9 Am A2 Am A2 A9 (repeat if desired)
None of us have actually been there Not like you
Am A2 Am
Ignorant siblings in the congregation
A2 A9
Gather around spewing sympathy Spare me
Am A2 Am
None of them can even hold a candle up to you
A2 A9
Blinded by choice these hypocrites won't see
Am A2
But enough about the collective Judas
Am
Who could deny you were the one who
A2 A9
Illuminated your little piece of the divine
Am A2
And this little light of mine a gift you passed on to me
Am A2 A9
I'm gonna let it shine to guide you safely on your way Your way home
Instrumental break: Am A2 Am A2 A9 Am A2 Am Asus4 A2 A9
Am A2 Am
Oh what are they going to do when the lights go down
A2 A9
Without you to guide them all to Zion
Am A2 Am
What are they going to do when the rivers overrun
A2 A9
Other than tremble incessantly
Am A2 Am A2
High is the way but all eyes are upon the ground
Am A2 Am A2
You were the light and the way they'll only read about
Am A2 Am A2
I only pray Heaven knows when to lift you out
Am A2 A9 (one strum, hold)
Ten thousand days in the fire is long enough
Am A2 Am A2 A9
You're going home
Am A2 Am
You're the only one who can hold your head up high

Shake your fists at the gates saying I've come home now
