             C
Well I have lived here all My life
            F             C
Don't know why I'm still surprised
          C                            F    G
That the sunset comes so early to this valley

[Verse2]
           C
And if I'm not on My toes
     F                  C
The twilight comes and goes
        C                           F       G
And I'm all alone with darkness all around Me

[Verse3]
           C
If I could see Your face again
           F                C
Black with coal until Your grim
          C                                  F      G
Cuts like sunshine through the shadow of the mountain

[Verse4]
          C
I'd drop everything and run
       F                   C
Like I know I should have done
      C                               F     G
Every time You come home to Me in the evening

[Chorus]
Dm                             G
Tonight, just like the night before
Dm                                 G
Ain't nobody walking through that door

[Verse5]
       C
If I could touch You one more time
        F                   C
Just to feel Your hand in Mine
     C                       F     G
I'd never let it go again, I promise

[Verse6]
      C
Maybe We could find a town
              F            C
Dreams aren't buried underground
           C                     F      G
And not so many ghosts around to haunt Us

[Chorus]
Dm                         G
And every breath is not a prayer
Dm                                G
Until I turn around and find You there

[Verse7]
           C
If I could see Your face again
      F                 C
And I knew what I know then
           C                        F     G
I wouldn't make You work so hard to know Me

[Verse8]
      C
I'd surrender to Your arms
         F                   C
Wrapped around Me, safe and warm
         C                              F     G
'cause I knew You were the one from the beginning

[Outro]
Dm              F       G
And I'd give almost anything
Dm              G            | C F C C | F F C ...
If I could only see Your face again
