Am F C G
Rivers and roads, we’ve yet to see,
Am F C G
Dragons and gold, in our dreams,
Am F C G
Lost in the woods, we make our way,
Am F C G
Day by day, we play our play.

(Chorus: F, C, G, Am)
F C G Am
Oh, the stories we’ll tell,
F C G Am
Of our personal heavens and hells,
F C G Am
The rivers we’ll cross, the roads we’ll travel,
F C G Am
In our hearts, life’s mysteries unravel.

(Verse 2: Am, F, C, G)
Am F C G
Stars above, guide our way,
Am F C G
Moon’s soft glow, ends our day,
Am F C G
Through desert sands, we find our truth,
Am F C G
In our youth, we find our youth.

(Chorus: F, C, G, Am)
F C G Am
Oh, the tales we’ll create,
F C G Am
Of love and loss, of fate and fate,
F C G Am
The rivers we’ll cross, the roads we’ll travel,
F C G Am
In our hearts, life’s mysteries unravel.
