[Verse 1]
G C
Like swinging your arms in the dark to find out how the light sits
G C
and stepping on roads like the legs of the friends that decided to stay in.
G C
And cursing real soft to yourself and to me how am I going to get to bed
G C*** D*
and I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
G C
We can press our hands 'til the fire reaches our front door.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
D C
So, I will keep this light lit low for you.
D C
When you stop your feet from running tired.
[Chorus]
G C
Oh, don't leave me, God, take me home.
G C
Oh, don't leave me, God, take me home.
[Verse 2]
G C
We march in philistine synchronise back and forth
G C
saying I am waiting, I am waiting till my promise comes.
G C*** D*
Don't keep your mouth open so when you lay out on the floor,
G C*** D*
the water will fill up your throat when it falls from the firmiment.
G C
But bending again over rails with your friends only drowns out the helpfull noise.
G C*** D*
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
G C
How long, how long, how long, how long, how long.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
D C
So, I will shake the boughs till you come down,
D C
sending the birds into the airs like black fire up against the sun.
[Chorus]
G C
Oh, don't leave me, God, take me home.
G C
Oh, don't leave me, God, take me home.
[Verse 3]
G C
Comes and it comes in the form of the voice he knows
G C*** D*
singing oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
G C
Someone has said in a song we could saw off that pearly gate.
G C
So, that sooner than crying the most tired wings could shake themselves awake.
G C
That kind of talk only leads us to thinking a circle on the lawn
G C
where only the leaves and seeds and the grass will blow,
G C
singing oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
D C
So, I will sing and soothe with your head laid low
D C
'cause in your sleep I heard you crying out.
[Chorus]
G C
Oh, don't leave me, God, take me home.
G C
Oh, don't leave me, God, take me home.
[Oitro]
G C
When I first saw it I still don't think I knew.
G C
So, I'm just waiting, I'm waiting 'till my promise comes.
