Cadd9 G Dsus2
How many roads you’ve traveled
Cadd9 G Dsus2
How many dreams you’ve chased
Cadd9 G Dsus2
Across sand and sky and gravel
Cadd9 G Dsus2
Looking for one safe place, yeah, hey yeah
Cadd9 G Dsus2
One safe place, yeah, hey yeah
Will you make a smoother landing
When you break your fall from grace
Into the arms of understanding
Looking for one safe place, yeah, hey yeah
One safe place, yeah, hey yeah
Oh life is trial by fire
And love’s the sweetest taste
And I pray it lifts us higher
To one safe place, yeah, hey yeah
How many roads we’ve traveled
How many dreams we’ve chased
Across sand and sky and gravel
Looking for one safe place, yeah, hey yeah
One safe place, yeah, hey yeah
