Going Home (Theme from Gods and Generals)

Mary Fahl, Going Home

3 4 -4 5 -4
They say there’s a place

5-4 4 -4 5 3
Where dreams have all gone

3 4-4 5 6 5 6 -6 6 6
They never said where, but I think I know

6 -6 -6 6 5
It’s miles through the night,

-4 4-4 5 3
Just over the dawn’

3 -3 4 -4 5 -4 4 4
On the road that will take me home

3 4 -4 5 -4 5-4 4 -4 5 3
I know in my bones, I’ve been here before

3 4 -4 5 6
The ground feels the same,

5 6 -6 6 6
tho the land’s been torn

6 6 -6 -6 6 5 -4 4 -4 5 3
I’ve a long way to go, the stars tell me so

3 -3 4 -4 5 -4 4 4
On this road that will take me home.

7 7 -7 -6 6 5-4 4
Love waits for me round the bend

7 7 7 -7 6 -6 6
Leads me endlessly on

7 7 7 -7 -6 6 5-4 4
Surely sorrows shall find their end

4 5-5 6 5 4 4 -4 -4
And all our troubles will be gone

5 -4 4 -4 5 6 3 4 -4 5 3
And I know what I’ve lost, and all that I won

3 -3 4 -4 5 -4 4 4
When the road finally takes me home

3 4 -4 5 -4 5 -4 4 -4 5 3
And when I pass by , don’t lead me astray

4 -4 5 6 5 6 -6 6 6 6
Don’t try and stop me , don’t stand in my way

6 -6 -6 6 5 -4 4 -4 5 3
I’m bound for the hills where cool waters flow

3 -3 4 -4 5 -4 4 4
On this road that will take me home

7 7 -7 -6 6 5-4 4
Love waits for me round the bend

7 7 7 -7 6 -6 6
Leads me endlessly on

7 7 7 -7 -6 6 5-4 4
Surely sorrows shall find their end

4 5-5 6 5 4 4 -4 -4
And all our troubles will be gone

5 -4 4 -4 5 6
And we’ll know what we’ve lost,

3 4 -4 5 3
and all that we’ve won

3 -3 4 -4 5 -4 4 4
When the road finally takes me home

I’m going home
