Intro: Dm Am G (2x)  

Dm                    Am                     G  
The tops of crags and cliffs, the air is thin  
Dm                       Am                   G  
So we'll find a mountain path on down the hill  
Dm                     Am         G  
Meet me where the snow mount flows  
Dm                    Am                  G  
It is there, my dear, where we will begin again  
Dm  Am   G       Dm   Am  G  
Skipping stones, braiding hair  
Dm         Am   G    Dm   Am  G  
Last year's antlers mark the trail  

Dm                Am  
Take us back, oh, take us back  
G            Dm          Am   G  
Oh, take us, take us back  
  

Dm G Am (3x)  
Oooooh...  

Dm                          Am            G  
I've a friend who lives out by the rivers mouth  
Dm                   Am                G  
He knows the fiddles cry is an old sound  
Dm                    Am                G  
A lonesome creeks and moans of empty houses  
Dm                Am        G  
Are songs of like fallen rain  
Dm Am G             Dm Am      G  
Windblown buildings, muddy ground  
Dm       Am    G     Dm   Am    G  
The strength of water can sink a man  

Dm                Am  
Take us back, oh, take us back  
G            Dm   Am   G  
Oh, take us, take us back  
x2  

Dm G Am (3x) 
Oooooh...  

Dm              Am                G  
When the higher hills have turned blue  
Dm                        Am              G  
And the waves are lapping where the children grew  
Dm               Am               G  
All that we have know will be an echo  
Dm               Am         G  
Of days when love was true  
Dm Am G    Dm Am  G  
Muted voices just beyond  
Dm   Am     G       Dm    Am   G  
The silent surface of what has gone  

Dm G Am (3x)  
Oooooh...
