Prayer In Open D

Intro:  D     Dsus4

D                                
There's a valley of sorrow in my 
G
soul
Where every night I hear the thunder
 D
 roll
                            A
Like the sound of a distant gun
                           D
Over all the damage I have done
                                G
And the shadows filling up this land
Are the ones I built with my own 
D
hand
                             A
There is no comfort from the cold
                               D
Of this valley of sorrow in my soul


D                                 
There's a river of darkness in my 
G
blood

And through every vein I feel the 
D
flood
                             A
There is no bridge for me to cross
                             D
No way to bring back what is lost
                            G
Into the night it soon will sweep
                             D
Down where all my grievances I keep
                           A
But it won't wash away the years
                              D
Or one single hard and bitter tear

D
And the rock of ages I have known
Is a weariness down in the bone
I use to ride it like a rolling 
A
stone
                    D
Now I just carry it alone

D                                
There's a highway risin' from my 
G
dreams
                            D
Deep in the heart I know it gleams
                              A
For I have seen it stretching wide
                             D
Clear on across to the other side
                         G
Beyond the river and the flood
And the valley where for so long 
     D
I've stood
                            A
With the rock of ages in my bones
                               D
Someday I know it will lead me home
