Oh, [N] don't you recognize your home?
Can you spend a lifetime, or maybe two?
My hair is longer and my face stronger
From the years of searching for the truth now
Oh, in a valley of all the bones
Oh, I'm gonna rise up and get on my own
We all wander through the shadow of the world
Getting more black than our feet
Leaving blood attached everywhere we turn
Like a morbid eye that goes to sleep now
Oh, in a valley of all the bones
Oh, I'm gonna rise up and get on my own
Two plus two ain't a whole way through
And sometimes black against a white
There's a million shades of gray in between
When you manage to shed a little light now
Oh, in a valley of all the bones
Oh, I'm gonna rise up and get on my own
I've been in every patch, every path, or tip
From here to the other
Oh, I assume brothers don't you recognize your home?
Can I have a tongue like a prodigal son?
[Ab] [Em] [E]
Can you spend a lifetime, or maybe two?
My hair is longer and my face stronger
From the years of searching for the truth now
Oh, in a valley of all the bones
Oh, I'm gonna rise up and get on my own
We all wander through the shadow of the world
Getting more black than our feet
Leaving blood attached everywhere we turn
Like a morbid eye that goes to sleep now
Oh, in a valley of all the bones
Oh, I'm gonna rise up and get on my own
Two plus two ain't a whole way through
And sometimes black against a white
There's a million shades of gray in between
When you manage to shed a little light now
Oh, in a valley of all the bones
Oh, I'm gonna rise up and get on my own
I've been in every patch, every path, or tip
From here to the other
Oh, I assume brothers don't you recognize your home?
Can I have a tongue like a prodigal son?
