Well, the road is wide,
and I and wa ters run on (C)ei ther side.
And my shad ow in the (G)fad ing light
is stretch ing out to (C)wards the night.
’Cause the sun
tired of the wan der ing.
There’s a sign a head,
though I think it’s the same (C)one a gain.
But I’m think ing a bout my (G)on ly friend,
so I’ll find
my way home.
’Cause (F)when I need to get (C)home, you’re my guid ing (G)light, you’re my guid ing (C)light.
(F)When I need to get (C)home, you’re my guid ing (G)light, you’re my guid ing (C)light.
Oh, well, the (F)air is cold,
and yon der lies my (C)sleep ing soul,
by the branch es, (G)broke like bones.
Oh, this weak ened tree no (C)long er holds.
Mm, well, the night
is still,
and I have not yet (C)lost my will.
And, oh, I will keep on (G)mov ing till,
till I find my way (C)home.
(F)When I need to get (C)home, you’re my guid ing (G)light, you’re my guid ing (C)light.
(F)When I need to get (C)home, you’re my guid ing (G)light, you’re my guid ing (C)light.
(F)(When I need to get (C)home, you’re my guid ing (G)light, you’re my guid ing (C)light.
(F)When I need to get (C)home, you’re my guid ing (G)light, you’re my guid ing (C)light.
(F)When I need to get (C)home, you’re my guid ing (G)light, you’re my guid ing (C)light.
(F)When I need to get (C)home, you’re my guid ing (G)light, you’re my guid ing (C)light.) So lead me home, lead me (F)strong,
like the road I walk (G)on.
(F)When I need to get (C)home, you’re my guid ing (G)light, you’re my guid ing (C)light.
