verse 1: 
G#m         F#         G#m   
 There's a time in our lives 
     F#        G#m 
To return, sacrifice 
     F#             G#m 
Wild grass has grown high 
       F#              G#m/B 
On the path between our lives 
          F#/A#        G#m 
There's a light in the trees 
            F#             B7 
It's closer now, I'm on my knees 
   F#         G#m      F# 
Oh Father, forgive me, please 



[Refrão]
         G#m                 F# 
I came a long, long way back home 
       B7           F# 
To see you one more time 
                G#m                 F# 
'Cause I came a long, long way back home 
       B7              F#  
To see you and say Goodbye

 Father's hands work the ground 
          F#            G#m 
Turns the soil, lays it down 
     F#             G#m 
Everything done and said 
        F#                     G#m/B 
Lives beyond the quick and the dead 
    F#/A#        G#m 
Heritage passed along 
       F#                  B7 
To the sons like a blessed song 
              F#        G#m    F# 
So raise your voices on high tonight

'Cause I came a long, long way back home 
        B7              F#       G#m 
To hold you and say Goodbye, Goodbye
