If We Ever Make It Home, 2008
Songwriter: Wade Bowen
[Verse]
Am C F
Is anybody out there searching
Am C F
Has anybody lost their way
Am C F
Am I the only one who's hurting
C
Today
Am C F
Must have got some bad directions
Am C F
How'd we ever end up here
C Bb
All this pain and desperation
F
And fear
[Chorus]
C G
If we ever make it home
Am F
They'll be peace like we've never known
C G
Nobody's gonna walk alone
F
We'll be leaning on each other
C G
Every wall that we've built up high
Am F
Is gonna fall right before our eyes
C G
Love will surely conquer hate
F G Am C F
If we ever make it home
[Verse]
Am C F
There's darkness in the daylight
Am C F
As the devil works his trade
Am C F
He's the first one to your gravesite
C
With a smile on his face
Am C F
There's a flicker in the distance
Am C F
Where a single candle glows
C Bb
And another walking with us
F
Who knows
[Chorus]
C G
If we ever make it home
Am F
They'll be peace like we've never known
C G
Nobody's gonna walk alone
F
We'll be leaning on each other
C G
Every wall that we've built up high
Am F
Is gonna fall right before our eyes
C G
Love will surely conquer hate
F G Am C F
If we ever make it home
Am C F
Am C F
C Bb F
[Repeat Chorus]
Oh if we ever make it home
