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