Verse 
                        D                       G 
Hey, look how far we've come, do we know who we are? 
              A                                     D 
Stranded on a mountaintop trying to catch a falling star 

                          D                                    G 
Here's to what we've left behind us, here's to what we've kept inside 
                       A                                    D 
May the road that lies before us lead to a place where love abides 

                       D                              G 
I went walking with my baby through the early morning frost 
                         A                                D 
Saw three crosses on the roadside where three young souls were lost 

                               D                            G 
Guess, they're flying with the angels, Jesus took 'em for a ride 
                   A                                        D 
High above the Rio Grande, they'll found a place where love abides 

                          G                                  Bm 
You may cross your barren desert, you must walk your path a- lone 
                       G                                   A 
But a sudden storm may blind you, shake your spirit to the bone 
                      G                                            Bm 
Seeking shelter for a weary heart, somewhere to rest, somewhere to hide 
                         G              A                      D 
Then somewhere down that troubled road, you find a place where love abides

Verse 
                           D                                G 
Our people came across the water with their fearful untamed hearts 
                      A                                 D 
Standing on a foreign shoreline praying for a brand new start 

                    D                                   G 
Hand in hand across the mountains and the raging rivers wide 
                              A                            D 
'Til they reached the distant ocean or found a place where love abides 

                          G                                   Bm 
You may cross your barren desert, you might walk your path a- lone 
                       G                                   A 
But a sudden storm may blind you, shake your spirit to the bone 
                      G                                            Bm 
Seeking shelter for a weary heart, somewhere to rest, somewhere to hide 
                         G              A                      D 
Then somewhere down that troubled road, you find a place where love abides 

                        D                       G 
Hey, look how far we've come, do we know who we are? 
              A                                     D 
Stranded on a mountaintop trying to catch a falling star
