[Intro]  
Em  C  G  D  
[Verse 1]  
Em                 C  
I traced it back to where it began  
G                   D  
Before the chaos, before the man  
Em                   C  
A spark inside, a whisper loud  
G                       D  
Beneath the silence, beyond the crowd  
[Chorus]  
         Em             C  
It’s the point of origin, the place I knew  
     G                  D  
Before I ever walked away from truth  
         Em           C  
Every answer I was trying to find  
     G                   D  
Was waiting there in that first light  
[Verse 2]  
Em                    C  
I see it now, through clearer eyes  
G                       D  
The winding road, the thin disguise  
Em                  C  
A child’s voice I tried to hide 
 
G                   D  
Still calling from the other side  
[Chorus]  
         Em             C  
It’s the point of origin, the place I knew  
     G                  D  
Before I ever walked away from truth  
         Em           C  
Every answer I was trying to find  
     G                   D  
Was waiting there in that first light  
[Bridge]  
Bm             C  
We all begin where stories burn  
G                  D  
And somewhere deep, we all return  
Bm             C  
To who we were before the name  
Am                  D  
To something wild we couldn't tame  
[Final Chorus]  
         Em             C  
It’s the point of origin, not just a place  
     G                  D  
But a feeling I could never replace  
         Em           C  
It’s where my shadow meets the sun  
     G               D         Em  
The starting line where I begun
