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