Lights Cactus in the Valley Lyrics

Intro: C/G|Em|Am|Bb7 (x2)
Verse 1:
I never meant to wither
I wanted to be tall
Like a fool, left the river
And watched my branches fall.
Old and thirsty, i longed for the flood
To come back around
To the cactus in the valley,
That's about to crumble down
Chorus:
And wipe the mark of sadness from my face
Show me that your love will never change
If my yesterday is a disgrace
Show me that you still recall my name.
Verse 2:
So the storm finally found me and left me in the dark
In the cloud around me, i don't know where you are
If this old/whole world goes up in arms, all i can do is stand/stare
And i wont fight for anyone until you move my hands.
Chorus:
And wipe the mark of madness from my face
Show me that your love will never change
If my yesterday is a disgrace,
Tell me that you still recall my name.
Bridge:
(the C/G can be replaced by a regular open C chord)
Oh here, in this shadow;
Here i am
And i need someone by my side.
It becomes so
Hard to stand
And i keep trying to dry my eyes.
Come and find me
In the valley.
Chorus:
And Wipe the mark of sadness from my face,
show me that your love will never change.
And if my yesterday is a disgrace,
Tell me that you still recall my name.
And wipe the mark of madness from my face
Show me that your love will never change.
And if my yesterday is a disgrace
Tell me that you'll still recall my name.
Oh tell me that you'll still recall my name.
Oh tell me that you'll still recall my name.
