Lord take me home 
To the peaceful valley 
Down the winding river 
To your city your soul 
I've grown so tired 
And my hearts grown heavy 
To walk any longer 
To your cities of gold 
All my life I've loved for forgiveness 
But I can never seem to get enough 
All my life I've been rocked into the darkness 
With a gun to my head 

Trying to find a peaceful song 
Trying to find a peaceful song 
To sing when everything goes wrong 
Till the peaceful valley calls me home 

Up there in the clouds 
In that glorious kingdom 
Tell me there ain't nothing but an easy recline 
Can I still smoke my cigarettes and have my coffee 
Up there in heaven with a bottle of wine 
Cause all my life, I've longed for forgiveness 
But I can never seem to get enough 
All my life I've been rushed into the darkness 
With a gun to my head 

Trying to find a peaceful song 
Trying to find a peaceful song 
To sing when everything goes wrong 

Till the peaceful valley calls me home 
Oh take me home to the peaceful valley 
Down the winding river 
To your city or soul
