[Intro]
C G C G
[Verse 1]
C There are lines on my head in a canyon of sand G We were miracles once in a trembling dance Dm Am Just the light from a star that shimmers and burns F G Only light years away from the lessons it learned C But there’s a heart on a leaf C When it cracks in the cold G And it falls at your feet G In the amber and gold Dm Like a drum playing beats Dm A thousand years old F And it bursts at the seams G Of the stories it told Dm7 But she holds you G Cause she knows you
[Chorus]
F And heavens run Am Tears into clear water G Through ancient nights Am We knew the dreams of men F And through the world Am The tears into the order D The breath of time F Caused me to wander again G C Oh, it caused me to wander again G Yeah, wandering, wandering, wandering
[Verse 2]
C It’s in the love from the moon C For the morning dew G When it clings to the grass Dm Just to remind you that change is a gift Dm Forever is a lie Am With a kiss from the sun G It returns to the sky C It’s in the whisper of the wind C When it blows through your hair G And it waits for you there G In the cold mountain air Dm There’s no gold in those hills Dm It’ll bring you despair F Only holes to be filled G And they’ll always be there
[Chorus]
F Heavens run Am Tears into clear water G Through ancient nights Am We knew the dreams of men F And through the world Am The tears into the order D The breath of time F Caused me to wander again G C Oh, it caused me to wander again G Yeah, wandering, wandering, wandering C G Ooh
[Bridge]
F You’re bound by a place F That’ll bring you to your knees G And it breathes for the world G Through the tops of the trees Am G To a river in the sky and it drives through the wires and it shows you Dm She holds you Am She knows you
[Interlude]
G Am
[Chorus]
F Am Heaven cries tears into clear water G Through ancient earth Am We knew the dreams of men F And through the world Am Through the earth and to the yonder D The breath of time F Caused me to wonder again G C Oh, it goes me to wander, wander again G Yeah, wander and wander and wander C Wander and wander and wander
