VERSE:
               D
Last night I dreamed that 
G         D
I was a child
               D
Out where the pines grow 
          A
Wild and tall
       D
I was trying to 
G                           D
  Make it home through the forest
            D   A          D
Before the dar-ar-arkness falls
VERSE:
    D
I heard the wind rustling 
G               D
  Through the trees
      D
And ghostly voices 
                A
Rose from the fields
                      D
I ran with my heart pounding 
 G                D
Down that broken path
          D     A
With the dev-il-il 
                D
Snapping at my heels
VERSE:
                      D
I broke through the trees, and 
G               D
  There in the night
             D
My father's house stood 
                   A
Shining hard and bright
                   D
The branches and brambles 
 G                                D
Tore my clothes and scratched my arms
                  D
But I ran till I fell, 
  A             D
Shaking in his arms

VERSE:
                D
I awoke and I imagined 
           G                     D
The hard things that pulled us apart
              D
Would never again, sir, 
                            A
Tear us from each other's hearts
         D
I got dressed, 
              G
And to that house 
       D
I did ride
                 D
From out on the road, 
                 A                  D
I could see its windows shining in light
VERSE:
                  D
I walked up the steps and 
G               D
  Stood on the porch
                  D
A woman I didn't recognize 
                                        A
Came and spoke to me through a chained door
                D
I told her my story, 
G                   D
  And who I'd come for
                      D
She said "I'm sorry, son, 
                    A                  D
But no one by that name lives here anymore"

             D
My father's house shines 
 G         D
Hard and bright
                  D
It stands like a beacon 
                   A
Calling me in the night
             D
Calling and calling, 
G               D
  So cold and alone
                          D
Shining `cross this dark highway 
           A
Where our sins 
        D
Lie unatoned
