The way, we know the way. We've seen the way

We'll show the way to get you back home

To the peace where you belong

If you're lost and think you can't be found

We know the way, we've got the way

We'll lead the way to get you back home

To the peace where you belong

The way, we know the way. We've got the way

We'll share the way to bring you back home

To the peace where you belong

F Am G C

So many lost highways that used to lead home

F Am G C

But now they seem used up and gone

F Am G C

They sure had the magic when they were first found

F C G F C G

But not this road, this road has never been closed

F C G F C G Dm Em F G C

It's still brand new

Verse 1, 2 & 3

When faceless and anonymous come to beat down your door

And say you're all washed up and done

You can just say they have nothing in store

To touch this soul because they just don't know

They just don't know the way

Verse 1, 2 & 3
