Intro
Dm F C A# (2x)
[Verse 1]
Dm F
With a tiny rope and a bag of stones and all her broken wishingbones
C A#
She's going in, she's going home
Dm F
Oh this little golden eye
C A#
Fighting every day behind the light, behind the light
Dm F
Walking faster down the street red eyes and no shoes on her feet
C A#
Going on this journey, determined to complete.
Dm
This is farewell, this is goodnight
F C
The last time she will see the daylight
A#
See the daylight
[Chorus 1]
A# F
And she's going on a journey
Dm C
Always walking down the road
A# F
And the water is always calling
Dm C
My little child, please come home
[Post-Chorus]
Dm C F
That's when she went away
C A#
Away from the light of day
[Verse 2]
Dm F
Standing by the riverside
C
Patientelly waiting for the tide to come along
A#
To come along
Dm F C
The water going through her feet and on her body wind so cold and sweet
A#
So cold and sweet
[Chorus 1]
A# F
And she's going on a journey
Dm C
Always walking down the road
A# F
And the water is always calling
Dm C
My little child, please come home
[Chorus 2]
A# F
And the stars were brightly shining
Dm C
When she reached out they were gone
A# F
And the water started calling
Dm C
My little child, please come home
[Bridge]
Dm C A#
Feel the water in her body, water's never going out x8
[Chorus 1]
A# F
And she's going on a journey (water's never going out)
Dm C
Always walking down the road (water's never going out)
A# F
And the water is always calling (water's never going out)
Dm C
My little child, please come home (water's never going out)
[Chorus 2]
A# F
And the stars were brightly shining (water's never going out)
Dm C
When she reached out they were gone (water's never going out)
A# F
And the water started calling (water's never going out)
Dm C
My little child, please come home (water's never going out)
[Outro]
Dm F
When a shiny light hit her eye
C
And she turned around and climbed towards the sky
A#
Towards the sky
