The Staves - The motherlode

^C#mCounting the winters, n^Eumb too cold ^C#mSearching the valley, for s^Eecrets untold The mo^C#muntains are children, to s^Eomeone so old D(add2) E A king without kingdom or throne D(add2) E Digging the mud and the stone

^C#mAll men have left here but y^Eou have remained At the b^C#manks of the river, for^Eever the same T^C#mhough no water flows here, the m^Eemory stays D(add2) E As long as it stays you are here D(add2) E Heart broken year after year

^EPeople running away, running like strangers day after day ^C#mBreathe in, you're not al^Eone ^BGol^C#mden ^Bri^C#mver r^Dunn^C#ming f^Brom ^C#mher h^Aome ^E

The ^C#msun was an altar, bef^Eore reaching out And r^C#maised up the dagger, that h^Eung from his belt He c^C#mursed his disillusion and the s^Eadness he felt D(add2) E Weeping at what he'd become, D(add2) E just a fool in the gold of the sun

^EPeople running away, running like strangers day after day ^C#mBreathe in, you're not al^Eone
