_ Last night I dreamed _ _ [Bb] I _ _ _ was a _ child _ _ _ _ _ _ Out where the _ _ pines grow _ _ _ _ _ wild [C] and _ tall
_ _ _ _ _ I was trying _ to _ _ [Bb] _
_ make it home to [F] the fire
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
Before the _ _ dawn, _ _ _ _ _ the _ heartless fall _ _ _ _ _ _
I heard the wind _ _ _ rustling _ _ _ through _ the _ _ trees _ _
_ _ _ _ And ghostly _ voices _ _ _ _ _ rose from [C] the _ _ field
[C] _ _ _ I ran with [F] my heart pounding _ [Bb] _
_ down that broken [F] path
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ With the _ devil _ _ [C] _ _ snapping at my _ heel _ _ _
_ _ I broke through the _ _ trees [Bb] and _ _ _ there [F] in the night _ _
_ _ _ _ _ My father's _ house stood _ _ _ shining hard [C] and bright
_ _ _ _ _ The branches [F] and _ _ brambles [Bb]
tore my clothes and scratched [F] mine _ _ _ _ _ _
I ran till I fell, _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] shaking _ in his arms _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I awoke and I imagined _ the [Bb] hard _ things that [F] pulled us _ apart _ _ _ _ _ _
We'll never _ again serve, _ and tear us from each _ [C] other's hearts _ _ _
_ _ _ _ I [F] got dressed _ into [Bb] that _ house _ I'd be [F] right _ _
From _ _ _ _ out on the road _ I could see its [C] windows _ shining _ [F] white
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I walked up the _ _ steps and _ [Bb] _ I stood on the floor _ _ _ _ _
_ _ A woman I didn't _ recognize _ came and spoke to me through the chain [C] _ door _
I _ _ _ [F] _ told her my _ story _ and [Bb] _
_ _ who [F] I'd come for
_ _ _ _ _ She said, I'm sorry son, no one by that [C] name lives here _ _ anymore _ _ _ _ _
_ Well my father's house shined _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ hard [F] and bright _ _
_ _ _ _ _ It sounds like a beacon _ _ _ calling _ _ [C] me in the _ night _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Calling [F] and _ _ calling, _ _ [Bb] _ _ so cold and alone _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Shining across this dark _ highway where [C]
our sins _ _ [F] lie unknown
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
