Intro
Am C G F (2x)
[Verse 1]
Am 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
Am C
Oh this little golden eye
G F
Fighting every day behind the light, behind the light
Am C
Walking faster down the street red eyes and no shoes on her feet
G F
Going on this journey, determined to complete.
Am
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
Am G
Always walking down the road
F C
And the water is always calling
Am G
My little child, please come home
[Post-Chorus]
Am G C
That's when she went away
G F
Away from the light of day
[Verse 2]
Am C
Standing by the riverside
G
Patientelly waiting for the tide to come along
F
To come along
Am 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
Am G
Always walking down the road
F C
And the water is always calling
Am G
My little child, please come home
[Chorus 2]

And the stars were brightly shining
Am G
When she reached out they were gone
F C
And the water started calling
Am G
My little child, please come home

Feel the water in her body, water's never going out x8

And she's going on a journey (water's never going out)

Always walking down the road (water's never going out)

And the water is always calling (water's never going out)

My little child, please come home (water's never going out)
[Chorus 2]

And the stars were brightly shining (water's never going out)

When she reached out they were gone (water's never going out)

My little child, please come home (water's never going out)

Am C
When a shiny light hit her eye
G
And she turned around and climbed towards the sky

Towards the sky
