verse 1
The plain stretched out before me
G D Em
As far as the slate grey sky
I told her I was leaving
G D Em
With the migrant birds, to fly
I said she might expect me
G D C
With the coming of the spring
Em
When the birds return back home again
G D Em C G/B Am G Em
With newfound songs to sing
verse 2
G D Em
High on the rising sun
I felt my spirit rising

My journey was newly begun
The joy of expectation
G D C
Rose in my heart with a song
Em
The courage of conviction
G D Em C G/B Am G Em
Carried my journey along
verse 3
G D Em
The milk of my mother's breast
The son of constant sorrow
G D Em
Sank to his knees in the west
I prayed to my god for guidance
G D C
To find there was no one but me
Em
There was just the open highway
G D Em C G/B Am G Em
As far as my eyes could see

verse 4
Throughout my endless journey
G D Em
I have been searching for paradise lost
I now retrace my footsteps

With the burden of infinite cost
I see myself returning

Alone, with my head held high
Em
The plain stretched out before me
G D Em C G/B Am G Em
As far as the slate grey sky
