Verse
EThis is what life is like on the C#mground
AI had a brother who was stationed up in northern hill county,
Eno he never really came B5home
EWe drove out east to red river to see the C#mhigh water flow
That rAiver was running just searching for an ocean
The fEreedom he'd never kB5nown
That feC#meling you get when the wind is blowing like
your whoAle life is starting over
We made our peEace there in the no mans lB5and
where we comeA5 from
Chorus
Ive been Esearching for
The waves that cC#married us home
To the oAcean we all came from
Where we wEont be retB5urned
Ive been sEearching for
The waves that cC#married us home
To the oAcean we all came from
Where we wEont be disB5solved
into oAne
Verse
ELike a simple animal running on broken lC#megs that night
His vAoice was splintering rising, falling to a fEate
he'll never get oB5ut
EFrom spokane all the way across montana C#mout to the blood reserve
ABlack levis jacket knocking them beers back on the
Ebank of that rB5iver
C#mUnderneath September skies in sAouth US border
he made his peEace there
just after his bB5oots
filled up with wAater
Chorus
Ive been Esearching for
The waves that cC#married us home
To the oAcean we all came from
Where we wEont be retB5urned
Ive been sEearching for
The waves that cC#married us home
To the oAcean we all came from
Where we wEont be disB5solved
EWaves will wash away
the miC#msguided vision
AGlory in a battlefield
of a thoEusand corB5pses
Ive been sEearching for
The waves that cC#married us home
To the oAcean we all came from
Where we wEont be disB5solved
