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