Intro

 1. Setting out on this journey

 I packed up my regrets

 Now I sit here in this shelter

 Seems I don't have many left

 So I'm writing you this letter

 On this rainy April day

 You said your heart needed some distance

So I walked away

Chorus

I would gladly walk from Georgia, all the way to Maine

 I would cross the creeks and the mountain peaks

Whispering your name

 If you asked me I would do this

 I would go and not complain

 But this walk's for me, to find my peace

 In the Appalachian rain

 2. Looking out on the Blue Ridge

 I pulled a pebble from my shoe

 I threw it down into the valley

 Then I sat and thought of you

 I wish somehow it was that easy

 To just let go of all the pain

 But it's not, so I keep walkin'

 In the Appalachian Rain

Chorus

Bridge

 You could meet me at Katahdin

 On that clear September day

 But if you're not there where the trail ends,

I'll still be okay

Chorus
