VERSE 1

There is [A] something [Adim] in our [E] language that they [A] need [G6]
Like a [Am] good com [C7] panion [Em] follo [A7] wing a [D6] lead

A [A] cold No [Adim] vember [E] day, a frozen [A] track [G6]
The [Am] walking [C7] done, the [Em] four are [A7] heading [D6] back

The [D7] branches [Bbmaj7] on the [G] beech would [A7] call my [D6] name ( [E7] I remember)
