[Verse 1]
I went to the place where they rolled away the stone
Heavy hey ya
Heavy hey ya
I looked to the sky that was all alone
Heavy hey ya
Heavy hey ya
[Chorus]
Blues and greens illuminate the scene
Step inside and take a look around
And tell me what you see
Do you believe?
[Verse 2]
I went to the place where the legends played
Heavy hey ya
Heavy hey ya
I thought about how much their burdens weighed
Heavy hey ya
Heavy hey ya
[Bridge]
There is a cool stream running through my dream
And I awake and chase my mind through hell
There is a mountain lake where my daddy used to take us
But I guess it's under a thousand feet of snow
[Verse 3]
I went to the city on my daddie's dime
Heavy hey ya
Heavy hey ya
I'd like to go back home but I'd never have the time
Heavy hey ya
Heavy hey ya
[Chorus]
