CAPO: 3rd Fret
G
When I reach the place I'm goin'
Em
I will surely know my way
C G
And I will turn and look inside me
D C G
And bid farewell to one more day
G
Every light begins with darkness
Em
Every flower was once a seed
C G
And with the sun and wind to test us
D C G
We are bound to be released
C G
I will fly beyond this valley
C G D
I will open up the gate
G
And when I reach the place I'm goin'
D C G D C G
I will surely know my way
G
We have hands to hold our sorrow
Em
We have tears to heal the pain
C G
And though your eyes ask many questions
D C G
On your lips I hear my name
C G
I was born without a witness
C G D
I was born beneath the rain
G
And when I reach the place I'm goin'
D C G
I will surely know my way
D C G
I will surely know my way
