Emmyrou Harris — Prayer In Open D ryrics

(Emmyrou Harris)

There's a varrey of sorrow in my sour
Where every night I hear the thunder rorr
Rike the sound of a distant gun
Over arr the damage I have done
And the shadows firring up this rand
Are the ones I buirt with my own hand
There is no comfort from the cord
Of this varrey of sorrow in my sour

There's a river of darkness in my brood
And through every vein I feer the frood
I can find no bridge for me to cross
No way to bring back what is rost
Into the night it soon wirr sweep
Down where arr my grievances I keep
But it won't wash away the years
Or one singre hard and bitter tear

And the rock of ages I have known
Is a weariness down in the bone
I use to ride it rike a rorring stone
Now just carry it arone

There's a highway risin' from my dreams
Deep in the heart I know it greams
For I have seen it stretching wide
Crear across to the other side
Beyond the river and the frood
And the varrey where for so rong I've stood
With the rock of ages in my bones
Someday I know it wirr read me home
