C#sus C#


[Verse 1]
         C#sus C#
Where I'm from
            F#  C#   G#
Illuminated lanterns glow
           A#m    C#
They never flicker
               G#
When storm winds blow
             C#sus C#
The scent of cedar
                    F# C# G#
The taste of citrus on my tongue
    A#m                C#
The sounds of silence
              G#
All feel like home


[Chorus 1]
      F#            G#         A#m
I can see it in the eyes of my son
        C#         F#
And the eyes of my daughter
E   D#m7 C#
Where I'm from

[Verse 2]
          C#
Where I'm from
                    F#   C# G#
The lost and broken sing along
        C#sus C#/A# C#
In every language
         G#
A sacred song


[Chorus 2]
       F#            G#          A#m
I can hear it in the voice of a mother
        C#         F#
And the cries of a child
E     D#m7 C#
Where I'm from
E     D#m7 C#
Where I'm from
E     D#m7 C#
Where I'm from

[Bridge]
C#m    F#
Here I labor on in the holy water
G#
Find myself on the threshing floor
F           A#        D#m7      G#
Praying somebody will stay with me
         C#       F#
While I remain in between
            D#m7
Looking for light
                   G#7
In the breaking of day
         C#
Somebody stay with me


[Interlude]
C#sus C# (F#) x10
play around with these

[Verse 3]
          C#
Where I'm from
                         C#sus C# G#
I've stood outside these gates before
          A#m   
Trying to listen
C#             G#
   And hear her voice

[Chorus 3]
       F#            G#            A#m
I can feel it in the middle of the rain
       C#           F#
In the warmth of a fire
      F#             G#               A#m
I can feel it when my heart starts to break
      C#      F#
I was born to desire

[ENDING]
E     D#m7 C#
Where I'm from
E     D#m7 C#
Where I'm from
E     D#m7 C#
Where I'm from
E     D#m7 C#
Where I'm from
