G D
Last night I dreamed that I was a child
A
Out where the pines grow wild and tall
D G D
I was trying to make it home through the forest
A D
Before the darkness falls
G D
I heard the wind rustling through the trees
A
And ghostly voices rose from the fields
D G D
I ran with my heart pounding down that broken path
A D
With the devil snappin' at my heels
G D
I broke through the trees, and there in the night
A
My father's house stood shining hard and bright
D G D
The branches and brambles tore my clothes and scratched my arms
A D
But I ran till I fell, shaking in his arms

G D
I awoke and I imagined the hard things that pulled us apart
A
Will never again, sir, tear us from each other's hearts
D G D
I got dressed, and to that house I did ride
A D
From out on the road, I could see its windows shining in light
G D
I walked up the steps and stood on the porch
A
A woman I didn't recognize came and spoke to me through a chained door
D G D
I told her my story, and who I'd come for
A D
She said "I'm sorry, son, but no one by that name lives here anymore"

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