[Verse 1]
The nGights we spoke with tongues of fire
The dCays we walked out on the wire
EmWe were young and Dwe were not afraidC
The aGngels whispered in our ears
To teCll us what the hilltop hears
EmBeholden to the Dpromises we madeC
When Emwe were young and Dwe were not afraid
[Interlude]
G C/G Em D C
[Verse 2]
GRiver waters moved inside
Our Cbodies like the ocean tide
The Emspirit swam the Dhallows of our veinsC
The Gyears they roared like waves down on
The Crocky shores we stand upon
And Embeat against our Dbanks with iron rageC
When Emwe were young and Dwe were not afraidG
[Chorus]
CWe can still push uDp against those pillars
EmWe can light those fDoxes tails ablaze
CNighttime still pushes Dup against the sun
Where Emwe grow young and wDe are not afraid
And yGou, you gotta fiCnd your way back hEmome
Out of the Dwoods
And yGou, you don’t have to Chold your own
You gotta fEmind your way back Dhome
Out of the Amwoods
They’re gonna Csmoke you out
They’re gonna Gfind you out
Out of the Amwoods C
[Interlude]
G C/G Em D C
And yGou, you gotta fiCnd your way back hEmome
Out of the Dwoods
And yGou, you don’t have to Chold your own
You gotta fEmind your way back Dhome
They’re gonna Amsmoke you out C
They’re gonna Gfind you out
Out of the Amwoods
They’re gonna Csmoke you out G
They’re gonna Amfind you out C
They’re gonna Gsmoke you out
Out of the Amwoods
They’re gonna Cfind you out G
They’re gonna Amsmoke you out C
They’re gonna Gfind you out
