Gm
Gm A# Dm D# F
[Verse 1]
Gm
The crossroads were so long ago Our war was won but lost in the end
A#
Now the long run has left us spent Beaten by the places we went
Dm
Ready to rest, waiting to sleep, ready to sow what we had reaped
D#
No more shame for who we’ve been
F
we went there and back again
[Verse 2]
Gm
The mountain is so far away Our treasure has been reclaimed
A#
But there is no rest till we get home, those old streets that we once roamed
Dm
Waiting there with open arms Beaming with their saintly charms
D#
Forsaken loves and forgiven kin,
F
We went there and back again
[Verse 3]
Gm
All that remains are our memories, our past sins forgotten lost to the winds
A#
And we return as battered souls our faces dragged across the coals
Dm
Dreaming of a better time before the years were so unkind
D#
All that’s left is a lonesome end
F
We went there and back again
Am
