[Intro — fingerpicked guitar plays Holler Lantern Turn G6 Bbmaj7 Cadd9 Cm6 G/D E7 A7 D7 G6] [Verse 1] There's a bend along the foothills where the highway disappears And the trees stand like old neighbors who've been watching all these years I was driving with my worries and a head too full of noise Till the late sun crossed the branches like a thousand golden coins [Chorus] There's light through the pines There's room to breathe again The shadows can't stay standing When the morning's rolling in I don't know every answer But I know where hope begins With a little light through the pines And a prayer upon the wind [Verse 2] I remembered all the mornings that I thought I'd never see And the people who kept loving when I had no words to speak Then I pulled beside the shoulder, let the engine settle down Just to hear the quiet tell me there is goodness all around [Chorus] There's light through the pines There's room to breathe again The shadows can't stay standing When the morning's rolling in I don't know every answer But I know where hope begins With a little light through the pines And a prayer upon the wind [Instrumental — full nine-chord Holler Lantern Turn, fiddle, harmonica] [Bridge — single male solo] Nothing says the path gets easy Nothing says there won't be rain But the trees let daylight through them And I'll learn to do the same [Final chorus] There's light through the pines There's room to breathe again The shadows can't stay standing When the morning's rolling in I'll be grateful for the miles And the chances Heaven sends For that little light through the pines And the prayer upon the wind [End]
