We Were Here

N.C. Dm Mother I feel crucified Bb F Can't grin no more, Hell knows I've tried Dm If I don't make the break of day Bb F Well look for rainbows just the same Dm Did I ever tell you the joy I've felt Bb F Through all the time and love we've shared Dm Ma you can't help me anymore Bb F Can't keep the grey wolf from the door Dm You see the fear Bb In this anxiousness F That I feel C While my conscience begs Dm Behind closed doors Bb C F And I can't see the light to clear no more Dm Brother I wish I had know Bb F I missed the trick now you're not home Dm So many times now I look back Bb F I should have been there across the tracks Dm Down in the flames of guilt and hell Bb F Beyond the smoke there's starlight still Dm So until we meet again Bb F I'll send a blaze up in your name Dm Oh the horror Bb In this helplessness F That I've felt C While my conscience begged Dm For somethin' more Bb C F Since then don't know my heart to well no more Dm Ol' mask of shame Bb That I've worn with pride F Can't be explained C Never justified Dm But I'm still sure Bb C F That I'm so glad we were here at all Dm Sister let me clear the air Bb F We both know I never did my share Dm I'm sorry endlessly and more Bb F Hindsight's no benefit at all Dm But by your grace help my convey Bb F The beauty equal to the pain Dm Next time the band begin to play Bb F Will you save the last dance for me Dm To all those friends Bb That have lost their way F Beneath the weight C Of this great mystery Dm For feelin' all Bb C F This good earth has to give's a heavy call Dm Ain't no sense to make Bb But I draw confidence F In how the hurt C Show us we're capable Dm Of so much love Bb C F And in the it's grace will carry us all on home Bb Dm We were here C One and all Bb Dm Bold as sunlight C In the dawn Bb Dm We were here C Bound to fall Bb Dm I'll see you at the crossroads C Time comes Bb Dm We were here C Arm in arm Bb Dm Bright as starlight C In the dark Bb Dm We were here C Miracles Bb Dm I guess I'll see you at the crossroads C When the time comes F
