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