[Verso 1]
 
Am 
The crossroads were so   long ago Our war was won but lost in the end 
        C 
Now the long run has left us spent Beaten by the places we went 
Em 
Ready to rest, waiting to sleep, ready to sow what we had reaped 
F 
No more shame for who we’ve been 
G 
we went there and back again 



[Verso 2]
 
Am 
The mountain is so far away Our treasure has been reclaimed 
          C 
But there is no rest till we get home, those old streets that we once roamed 
Em 
Waiting there with open arms Beaming with their saintly charms 
F 
Forsaken loves and forgiven kin, 
G 
We went there and back again 



[Verso 3]

Am 
All that remains are our memories, our past sins forgotten lost to the winds 
    C 
And we return as battered souls our faces dragged across the coals 
Em 
Dreaming of a better time before the years were so unkind 
F 
All that’s left is a lonesome end 
G 
We went there and back again 
Am
