[Abm] Today I [Gb] turn [B] 33
[E] My [B] oldest didn't call
[E] [B] Middle's out of state
[Gb] And the youngest lives [B] here with me
[Abm] It's [Gb] not just [B] a town, it's [E] a final [B] resting [E] place
When I [B] die from joy, [Gb] as I refuse [B] to make
It [E] takes [B] eight minutes [E] for the sun [B] to hit your [E] bones
[B] I'm a long way from [E] home
So [B] many [E] days we [B] can't [E] all
[B] I'm a long [Abm] way from home
We're the places [Ebm] our [B] hearts first [E] broke
All [B] burned [E] down
What [B] was lost
[Gb] Rise up from [B] the ground
Now [Abm] I'll [Bb] [B] hold you close and bare
[E] Shadow [B] holds the
[E] world
A child holds [B] it all
The way you [Gb] catch me [B] where I fall
It [E] takes [B] eight minutes [E] for the sun to [B] hit your [E] bones
[B] I'm a [Gb] long way from [Abm] home
So [B] many days [E] we [B] can't all
