VERSE 1
A              AM7
I walked across an empty land
Bm                          Esus4       E
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
A                AM7
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Bm                      Esus4        E
sat by the river and it made me complete


BRIDGE
F#m            C#m	
oh simple thing where have you gone
D                          Esus4           E
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
F#m            C#m 	
so tell me when you're gonna let me in
D                           Esus4           E
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

A            AM7
I came across a fallen tree
Bm                        Esus4       E
I felt the branches of it looking at me
A                AM7	
is this the place we used to love?
Bm                              Esus4     E
is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

iI'm getting old and I need something to rely on

so tell me when you're gonna let me in
D                           Esus4           E
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin


CHORUS
Bm              C#m              E	
so if you have a minute why don't we go
Bm           C#m             E               
talk about it somewhere only we know
Bm                C#m          E	
this could be the end of everything
D
