[Intro]
Em D Bm
[Verse 1]
Em D Bm Em D Bm As I stand here searching for the right words I know that wisdom comes from despair Em D Bm Am G D And I realize it's harder to find your own voice Than to follow one already in the air
[Verse 2]
Em D Bm Em D Bm And as our time draws nearer I wonder just when we stopped being young Em D Bm Am G D And I know my greatest deeds will go unnoticed And our treasures were here all along
[Chorus]
A G D A G D Child of the earth hear my confession Please don't tell me that it's overdue A G D F C D Bm And from the four corners of the universe I will make my way to you
[Verse 3]
Em D Bm Em D Bm A gentle touch known only to each other And a breath that comforts like the rain Em D Bm Am G D And a taste no other shall ever know That upon my tongue shall remain
[Chorus]
A G D A G D Child of the earth heal me with your whisper Come and hold me close to your breast A G D F C D Bm Dress my wounds with your innocence I am weary… let me rest
[Bridge]
D C G D C G Let your rain wash over me You know all I ever hoped to be F Em D Is half of what you are to me

Em D Bm Em D Bm So take me from this island Lead me to the mountains of the moon Em D Bm Am G D As long as you lead I will follow And the end of time will be too soon
[Chorus]
A G D A G D Child of the earth hear my confession Please don't tell me that it's overdue A G D A G D And from the four corners of the universe I will make my way to you A G D A G D Child of the earth heal me with your whisper Come and hold me close to your breast A G D A G D Dress my wounds with your innocence I am weary let me rest A G D A G D I am weary I am weary F C D I will make my way to you F C D I will make my way to you F C D I will make my way to you
