[G]Fire and brimstone f[C]ell upon my e[G]ars as their t[G]hroats of open g[C]raves recited
[G]fear
Like the bu[Em]llets of a [C]gun they drove my t[G]ears and my f[C]eet to run the h[Em]ell
out of h[G]ere
See, [G]I was born a r[C]estless wayward c[G]hild, I could h[G]ear the whole world
c[C]alling me o[G]utside
Of the m[Em]asses I routi[C]nely sat beh[G]ind and L[C]ord, I had to [Em]see with my own e[G]yes
T[G]ake me home, I w[Em]ant to [D]go down the road that will t[Em]ake me to the l[C]iving [G]oak
And L[G]ord, I know that I'm a [Em]weathered s[D]tone but I owe it to my b[G]rothers to
[C]carry them h[G]ome

[C] [G] [D] [C] [G]

(pick G chord)

T[G]ake me home, I w[Em]ant to [D]go down the road that will t[Em]ake me to the l[C]iving [G]oak
And L[G]ord, I know that I'm a [Em]weathered s[D]tone but I owe it to my b[G]rothers to
[C]carry them h[G]ome
T[G]ake me home, I [Em]want to [D]go down the road that will [Em]take me to the [C]living [G]oak
And L[G]ord, I know it's a [Em]heavy l[D]oad but we'll carry my b[G]rothers, oh we'll
[C]carry them h[G]ome

And [G]oh, there is no [C]power on Earth or be[G]low that could [G]ever break our h[C]earts
or shake our s[G]ouls
And when you [Em]lay me down you'll [C]only bury b[G]ones 'cause [Em]oh, my heart and s[C]oul
are going h[G]ome
