1st Verse:
G G7
I set out on a great adventure,
Em D
The day my Father started leading me home,
C C/B
Said there?s gonna be mountains to climb,
Am G
And valleys we?re gonna go through.
G G7
But I had no way of knowing,
Em D
Just how hard this journey could be,
C
Cause the mountains are steeper

And the valleys are deeper than I ever would have dreamed

C Em
But I know we?re gonna make it,

And I know sometimes it seems like we?re going the wrong way

2nd Verse:
G G7 Em D C C/B Am Am (G)
Some rocks on my shoes,
Fears I wish I could lose,
That make the mountains so hard to climb,
And my heart gets so heavy with the weight of the world sometimes.
There?s a bag of regret,
Should?ve beens and not yets,
That keep on dragging around,
And I can hardly wait till the day I get to lay them all down.
Chorus 2:
C Em
Well I know that day is coming
C Em D
And I know it?s gonna be here soon
C Em
And I know I won?t turn back even if the whole world
Dsus2 Dmaj9
Says I?m going the wrong way
C Cm
Cause it?s just a long way home

The Father will pick us up and carry us in His arms,

So don?t get too comfortable,
C Cm
Cause really all we?re is just pilgrims passing through.

And he promised He would never ever leave us
C Cm Dsus2 D9
He?s gonna lead us, He?ll lead us home,

Every single step of the long way home,
Em D
So keep on, we?re gonna make it,
