Em  G  Em  A  D

[Verse 1]
      G            F
In my heart I will wait
       C
By the stony gate
        G
And the little one
      F         C
In my arms will sleep.

[Verse 2]
      G             F
Every rising of the moon
          C
Makes the years grow late
        G           F           C
And the love in our hearts will keep.

[Bridge]
          Am             C
There are friends I will make
    Am           C
And bonds I will break
       Am           C
As the seasons roll by
       Am            D
And we build our own sky.

[Verse 3]
   G               F
In my heart I will wait
       C
By the stony gate
        G
And the little one
      F         C
In my arms will sleep.

[Verse 4]
G         F
Stars in your sky
        C
Are the stars in mine
         G
And both prisoners
        F        C
Of this life are we.

[Verse 5]
            G             F
Through the same troubled waters
   C
We carry our time,
G           F            C
You and the convicts and me.

[Bridge]
          Am            C
There's a good thing to know
       Am         C
On the outside or in,
   Am         C
To answer not where
    Am         D
But just who I am.

[Verse 6]
          G         F
Cause the stars in your sky
        C
Are the stars in mine
         G
And both prisoners
        F     C
Of this life are we.

[Verse 7]
    G          F
The hills that you know
       C
Will remain for you
        G             F
And the little willow green
     C
Will stand firm.

[Verse 8]
    G               F
The flowers that we planted
            C
Through the seasons past
         G
Will all bloom
       F       C
On the day you return.

[Bridge]
     Am      C
To a baby at play
      Am         C
All a mother can say,
      Am            C
He'll return on the wind
       Am               D
To our hearts, and till then

[Verse 9]
       G            F
I will sit and I'll wait
       C
By the stony gate
        G
And the little one
           F          Am A  Am
'neath the trees will dance.
