With Words And Cake Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Welcome to a vast place,
to a world you've arrived.
I won't deceive you, birthday child,
it's safe as it is wild.
With words and cake and candle bright,
I offer you a [C#]guide.[D]
On the rough and open land[Gm]scape,[D]
stop and make a fire.
In the space between this tree and that,
how cozy to retire.
On the happy clinks of cups and plates,
mean no one is alone.
When the crows fall down,
your hands are faced,
you're never far from home.
[C#]Oh, [D]when the wind howls
a lonesome moan
Lift your throat and sing
Small and large creatures wander by
See what things they [C#]bring[D]
And the happy clinks of cups and plates
Mean no one is alone
When the clouds fall down,
your hands and face,
you're never far from [C#]home.[D]
If the prairie [C#]left, some lost [Gm]and h[D]ungry,
who are for hearth and [Ab]home?[D]
[C#]Oh, whistl[D]ing [C#]kettles, a[D] special f[C#]riend,
[D]hear its lovely [C#]tone.[D]
An[C#]d if you find yourself alone
[D]on your birthday [C#]night
[D]Bake your favorite cake
and do this little dance by [C#]candlelight
[D][C#][D][C#][D][C#][D]
[Gm]
[D]And the happy clinks of cups and plates
mean no one is alone
When the crumbs fall down
With your hands in place,
you're never far from home
You're [D]never far from [D]home
