Verse:
[F]The last time I [Am]took this ride
[F]We made great plans, we[Bb] felt alive
[F]Heading South[Am] fr[Dm]om countryside
Into a[Bb] city of hopes and[F] dreams
[F]How our young he[Am]arts laughed and cried
[F]How we stood strong, si[Bb]de by side
F Am-Dm (Play Am quickly on the change)
Never thought we'd say goodbye
To any[Bb]thing but [C]you
Chorus
[Bb]I remember [F]everything
[Bb]Fighting darkness, [Dm]chasing rain
[Am]I guess that was [Bb]yesterday
But it [F]feels so long [C]ago
[Bb]Whispered songs[F] on radio
[Bb]Take me back to w[Dm]hat I know
[Am]It all seemed so [Bb]beautiful to[F] me-[C]--
The j[Bb]ourney's [C]end is [F]here [Am] [F] [Am]
Verse (same chords):
Faces line these old town roads
Soft guitars, piano notes
Linger in the air like ghosts
With nothing left to say
Shadowed seasons brought you home
Brighter days have come and gone
Someone somewhere called you on
We could not follow you
Chorus (same chords except where noted):
I think I spoke the faithful line
That things don't leave or break or die
We'll raise your body to the sky
Before we lay it down
Now it seems the only path
Is the one we traveled fast
Destinations cut like glass
Into our history
The [Bb]journey's[C] end is [Dm]here
Bridge:
[Bb]I see an unclosed door
[Bb]Where duty used to stand
[Bb]I'm going South once more
[Bb]To make it on those pl[F]ans[Am] [F] [Am]
Verse (same chords):
Every station fades from view
Like the years bestowed on you
But years can be like diamonds too
They sparkle and they shine
But when at last we meet again
I'll shake your hand
I'll call you friend
Sometimes one journey has to end
To [Bb]let a[C]nother s[F]tart[Am-Dm] [Bb] [C] [F]
