F  C  G  Am  Dm  C  G  Am  F

[Verse 1]
                          C       G
On the street below these walls
                          Am                Dm
Where I used to walk, now I can barely crawl___
                         C
All this darkness rising tall
G             C                 Dm                    F
Lord, shine a light for me, I'm waiting to be called


[Chorus]
                C     G Am F
I'm ready to go home
               C
I'm ready to receive
   G        Am     F
Forgiveness for my sins
               C   G   F
I'm ready to begin___


[Verse 2]
                       C     G
Take this river to the sea
                          Am                   Dm
Where the delta flows the tide is washing over me
                            C
Guide this soul to heaven's door
G               C                Dm                  F
Show me where tomorrow lies, I'm waiting to be home


[Chorus]
                 C     G Am F
I'm ready to lay down
                 C
I'm ready now to sleep
  G       Am     F
A promise I must keep
                C   G   Am
I'm ready to go home___


[Bridge]
                                  F       Bb
Sometimes I lay down with these memories
                        Ab          Em
Breathe shallow, deep inside of me
                 Gm              Dm
Time has run its course with me
                    C
And I'm ready to go home


[Instrumental]
C   G Am F    C   G Am F    C  G  F


[Verse 3]
                         C      G
When the evening shadows fall
                             Am               Dm
When the time has come, I'll let defences fall___
                     C
To surrender's to survive
G              C             Dm                F
I will give up everything to those I leave behind


[Chorus]
                C     G Am F
I'm ready to go home
               C
I'm ready to receive
   G        Am     F
Forgiveness for my sins
               C   G   F
I'm ready to begin___


[Chorus]
                 C     G Am F
I'm ready to lay down
                 C
I'm ready now to sleep
  G       Am     F
A promise I must keep
                C   G    Am
I'm ready to go home___ again
