	        Intro:  D  A  D  D 

VERSES 
D         G          D         D 
Last night I dreamed that I was a child  
D         D          A         A 
Out where the pines grow wild and tall 
D         G          D         D 
I was trying to make it home through the forest  
D         A          D         D 
Before the darkness falls 

D         G          D         D 
I heard the wind rustling through the trees  
D         D          A         A 
And ghostly voices rose from the fields 
D         G          D         D 
I ran with my heart pounding down that broken path 
D         A          D         D 
With the devil snappin at my heels 

D         G          D         D 
I broke through the trees and there in he night 
D         D          A         A 
My fathers house stood shining hard and bright  
D         G          D         D 
The branches and brambles tore my clothes and scratched my arms 
D         A          D         D 
But I ran till I fell shaking in his arms

VERSES 
D         G          D         D 
I awoke and I imagined the hard things that pulled us apart 
D         D          A         A 
Will never again sir tear us from each others hearts 
D         G          D         D 
I got dressed and to that house I did ride  
D         A          D         D 
From out on the road I could see its windows shining in light 

D         G          D         D 
I walked up the steps and stood on the porch  
D         D          A         A 
A woman I didnt recognize came and spoke to me through a chained door 
D         G          D         D 
I told her my story and who Id come for 
D         A          D         D 
She said 'Im sorry son but no one by that name lives here anymore'

VERSE 
D         G          D         D 
My fathers house shines hard and bright  
D         D          A         A 
It stands like a beacon calling me in the night 
D         G          D         D 
Calling and calling so cold and alone 
D         A          D         D 
Shining cross this dark highway where our sins lie unatoned
