Walking Far From Home Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I was walking far from home
Where the [Em]names were
not burned [C]along the wall
Sour [G]building high as heaven
But [Em]the door was so small,
[C]door was so small
I saw [G]rainclouds, little

[Verse 2]
babies
And a [Em]bridge that had tumbled
to [C]the ground
I saw [G]sinners making mu[D]sic
[G]And I dreamt o[Em]f that sound,
[G]dreamt of [C]that sound

[Verse 3]
I was [G]walking far from [D]home
But I car[Em]ried your letters [C]all the while
I saw [G]lovers in [D]a window
Whisper, [Em]"Warn me like time,
[C]warn me like time"

[Verse 4]
I saw [G]sickness blooming fruit [D]trees
I saw [Em]blood and a bit of it was [C]mine
I saw [G]children in [D]a river
But their [Em]lips were still dry, lips [C]were still dry

[Verse 5]
I was [G]walking far [D]from home
And I [Em]found your face
mingled [C]in the crowd
Saw [G]a boat full of be[D]lievers
Say, "I'm [Em]talking too loud,
[C]talking too loud"

[Verse 6]
I saw sun[G]light on the wa[D]ter
Saw [Em]a bird fall like a hammer
from [C]the sky
And a [G]woman on [D]a speed train
She was [Em]closing her eyes, [C]closing her eyes

[Verse 7]
I saw [G]flowers on [D]a hillside
And a [Em]millionaire [D]pissing [C]on the lawn
Saw [D]a p[G]risoner take a[D] pistol
And say, [Em]"Join me in song,
[G]joi[C]n me in song"
[G]Saw a

[Verse 8]
car crash in [D]the country
Where the [G]prayers are
like weeds [C]along the road
[G]I saw strangers stealing[D] kisses
Giving [Em]only [G]their clothes,
only their clothes

[Verse 9]
Saw [G]a white dog chase [D]its [G]tail
And a [Em]pair of [G]hearts carved into [C]a stone[G]
I saw kindness and [D]an angel
Crying, [Em]"Take me [G]back home,
take me back home"

[Verse 10]
Saw [G]a highway, saw an [D]ocean
I saw [G]widows in the temple to the Lord
Naked dancers in [D]the city
[G]How [Em]they spoke for us [G]all,
[C]spoke for [G]us all

[Verse 11]
I saw [G]loaded [B]lin[Bm] en [C]tables[D][F#m]
And a [Em]motherless [G]colt and it was [C]gone
[D]I saw hun[G]gry bro[Bm]ther[G]s waiting[D]
[F#m]With a radio [Em]on, ra[G]dio [C]on[D]

[Verse 12]
I was [G]walking far from [D]home
Where the [Em]names are
not burned [C]along the wall
Saw a [G]wet road form [D]a circle
And it [Em]came like a call, [C]came like a call

[Verse 13]
[G]From [D]the[Em][C][G][D]
[Em][C][G][D][Em]
[C][G]
[D][G][Em][C][G][D]
[Em][C][G][D][G][Em]
