C              G       F
I am holding half an acre 
C                   G      F
Torn from the map of Michigan 
       C              G        F
And folded in this scrap of paper 
        Dm     F
Is the land I grew in 

C                G               F
Think of every town you've lived in
C              G         F
Every room you lay your head 
     C               G       F
And what is it that you remember 

         Bb     F     C     Am
Do you carry every sadness with you 
Bb     F          C         Am
Every hour your heart was broken 
Bb       F       C          Am
Every night the fear and darkness 
Dm        F
Lay down with you 

   C             G           F
A man is walking on the highway 
    C              G       F
A woman stares out at the sea 
       C               G         F
And light is only now just breaking 

        Bb     F     C     Am
So we carry every sadness with us 
Bb      F        C           Am
Every hour our hearts were broken 
Bb      F         C        Am
Every night the fear and darkness 
Dm        F
Lay down with us 

    C              G       F
But I am holding half an acre 
C                   G      F
Torn from the map of Michigan 
        C            G        F
I am carrying this scrap of paper 

           Bb         F     C        Am
That can crack the darkest sky wide open 
Bb       F     C        Am
Every burden taken from me
Bb      F        C       Am
Every night my heart unfolding 
Dm     F
My home
