Lyrics
[Verse 1]
[M]
That year came hard
Like a hailstorm low
Ran through the fields
Left nothing to show
[F]
Bills on the table
Rain on the tin
Still I got up
And I got back in
[Pre-Chorus]
[M]
I bent, I broke
I nearly went down
[F]
But I kept my feet
On that shaky ground
[Chorus]
Both
We went through fire
We went through rain
(Dust to gold)
We learned the hurt
And wore the chain
(Dust to gold)
Both
Now I stand taller
I know my name
(Dust to gold)
A harder heart
A stronger flame
(Dust to gold)
[Verse 2]
[M]
Mornings were heavy
Work felt thin
The mirror showed me
What I'd been in
[F]
Hands got rougher
Faith got loud
I found my voice
In the middle of proud
[Pre-Chorus]
[M]
Took every hit
Took every fall
[F]
Now I can hear
My own boots call
[Chorus]
Both
We went through fire
We went through rain
(Dust to gold)
We learned the hurt
And wore the chain
(Dust to gold)
Both
Now I stand taller
I know my name
(Dust to gold)
A harder heart
A stronger flame
(Dust to gold)
[Bridge]
[M]
If you see me now
You'd see the scars
[F]
But scars ain't chains
They're earned-out stars
Both
I don't look back
To live in regret
I turned that year
Into what I get
[Final Chorus]
Both
We went through fire
We went through rain
(Dust to gold)
We learned the hurt
And wore the chain
(Dust to gold)
Both
Now I stand taller
I know my name
(Dust to gold)
A harder heart
A stronger flame
(Dust to gold)
Both
Dust to gold
Dust to gold
(Dust to gold)
