(G major) (Dsus4) (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major) (Dsus4) (G major)
Verse 1
On a gravel (G major) (C major) back (D major) - (G major) road,
(Dsus4) (D major) (G major) down deep in the Fall (D major) (G major)
So long ago, (C major)
yet how well I recall
My Grandfather (G major) 's green (C major) (G major) truck (Dsus4) (D major)
(G major) with the rusted- (Dsus4) out rim (G major) s (Dsus4) (G major)
And me on (D major) the seat,
'tween my Mamma and him
How we rattled along, (G major)
(Dsus4) (G major) 'till the old Ford, it stalled
And Momma said "Jump on (C major) out,
pick you a big cotton ball"
An Autumn leaf (G major) scraped (Dsus4)
(G major) its way 'cross the (D major) road
We were headed back (G major) home.
(Dsus4)

Verse 2
See the proud, (G major) thrust (D major) ing, (G major)
curve (Dsus4) (G major) of the robin's red breast (Dsus4) (G major)
Out gathering (C major) worms to
return to her nest,
The lavender haze (G major) (Dsus4) (G major) at the first light (D major) (G major) of dawn,
(Dsus4) (G major)
A woman's clear (D major) voice lilting in song,
And all the fine (G major) words (Dsus4) (G major) our poets (Dsus4) have said, (G major)
(Dsus4) (G major)
The sparkling (C major) dew upon
the spider's silk web!
Does one mat (G major) ter more? (Dsus4)
(D major) (G major) Does one matter less? (D major)
Who of us can (G major) say?

Verse 3
The tents (D major) are rolled (G major) up,
(Dsus4) (G major) the (D major) (Dsus4) Reviv (G major) al's left town (Dsus4) (G major)
All that re (C major) mains (G major) (C major)
is the fine sawdust ground
Still wet from the (G major) tears (Dsus4)
(G major) that fell from the eyes
Of (Dsus4) (G major) folks too far (D major) down
to hang back in pride
And I am here, (G major) too,
(Dsus4) (G major) like (D major) I al (G major) ways (D major) (G major) (Dsus4) (G major) was:
Deep (A minor) in (G major) the pain, (C major) strong in the love
Still singing my prayer (G major) (D major) (G major)
to Heaven above (D major) (Asus4) (D major)
Heartfelt (Dsus4) an (G major) d true.
Interlude 3
(Dsus4) (G major)
Verse 4
Once (D major) you were the (G major) dawn, (Dsus4) (D major) (G major) the dusk,
(D major) an (G major) d the light (Dsus4) (G major)
Without the dream (C major) of holding you tight
My days turned (G major) to black,
(Dsus4) (G major) I could hardly (Dsus4) take breath (G major) (Dsus4) (D major) (G major)
I stumbled my (D major) way thru
a fate worse than death
But like the Phoenix that (G major) rose (Dsus4) (G major) right out of (D major) the fire,
(G major) (Dsus4) (C major) (G major)
I came back (C major) too, from a bed of desire
And shook from my (G major) wings (Dsus4)
(D major) (G major) the ash from the pyr (D major) e,
And headed back (G major) home.
