D                                G
There's a valley of sorrow in my soul
                                     D
Where every night I hear the thunder 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
                                  D
Aew the ones I buildt with my own hand
                             A 
There is no comfort from the cold
                               D
Of this valley of sorrow in my soul
                                  G
There's a river of darkness in my blood
                               D
And thru every vein I feel the 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 won't wash away the  years
                               D
Or one single hard and bitter tear
                            
And the rock of ages I have known
G                           D
Is a weariness down in the bone
                                A
I use to ride it like a rolling stone
                     D
Now I just carry it alone
                                G
There's a highway risin from my dreams
                            D
Deep in the heart I know it gleams
                              A
For I have seen it stretching wide
                          D
Clear across to the other side
                         G
Beyond the river and the flood
                                     D
And the valley where for so long I've stood
                             A
With the rock  of ages in my bones
                               D
Someday I know it will lead me home
