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