[Verse 1]
G                 G/F#     Gsus4/F# G/F#
 I walked across     an empty land
Am7                          Dsus4      D  Dsus4
 I knew the pathway like the back of my ha-and
G                 G/F#      Gsus4/F# G/F#
 I felt the earth   beneath my feet
Am7                      Dsus4      D   Dsus4
 Sat by the river and it made me comple-ete
 
[Bridge]

  Oh simple thing   where have you gone?
Am7                                        Dsus4 D
 I'm getting old and I need something to rely    on
Em                Bm                   G/B     Bm
 So tell me when   you're gonna let me in

[Verse 2]
G              G/F#   Gsus4/F# G/F#
 I came across   a fallen tree
Am7                        Dsus4      D  Dsus4
 I felt the branches of it looking at me-e
G                  G/F#      Gsus4/F# G/F#
 Is this the place   we used to love?
Am7                               Dsus4    D  Dsus4
 Is this the place that I've been dreaming o -of?

Am7                 G/B              Dsus4 D
  And if you have a minute why don't we    go
Am7             G/B            Dsus4 D
  Talk about it somewhere only we    know
