Dmaj7 A Dmaj7 A I wanna live in the land of lakes Where the great waves break And the night runs right into the day I wanna be with ones I left But I'm way out west And the years keep on slipping away I wanna run on the sacred dunes Through the ancient runes Where the fires of my ancestors burned I remember that fateful day When I ran away And you told me to never return Chorus: E Dmaj7 A Dmaj7 A You made me swear I'd never forget E I made a vow I'd see you again Dmaj7 A Dmaj7 A I will be back one day F#m A Dmaj7 A And I'll find you there by the great big lake I've been running a long, long time Trying to flee that life But I can’t seem to leave it behind Wanna visit the windswept shores Of a time before When the moon and the stars were aligned I remember the bright spring day When you sparked that flame And a fire that continues to burn I remember the day I left Headin’ way out west When you told me to never return Chorus I will be back one day And I’ll find you there by the great big lake You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA Dmaj7 E F#m Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
