The Great Homesickness

D                  F#m
Oh, how I love you gentlest of Ways,
    Bm        G             D
who ripens us as we wrestle with you.

       D                         F#m
On the day that you made us, you created yourself
Bm           G               D
And we grew, sturdy in your sunlight.

[Chorus]

G                               D
The Great Homesickness we could never shake off,
G                         D
The forest that always surrounded us,
G                                 Bm
You, the song that we sang within every silence,
A                       G
The dark net threading through.
        D
I love you.
G                               D
The Great Homesickness we could never shake off,
G                         D
The forest that always surrounded us,
G                                 Bm
You, the song that we sang within every silence,
A                       G
The dark net threading through.
G
I love you
G
I love you
G       D
I love you
