October 10, 2008
Banjo Tuned E, Play Key of D Moderate to Slow Tempo

    D                         A                                 E7
I look to see the wildflowers blooming & wonder why they seem so plain.
      D                                   A                   E
The springtime rides all the brown hills over, young birds sing in a silver rain.
     D                            A                   E7
I think of you as the night rolls by, you're on my mind the whole night through,
       D                A                    E7               A     D
Far away in a lonesome city, All the time you're gone, I think of you.

      D                         A
And when my world has turned to sunlight,
            E7                        A
And the dust clouds stand in the summer sky,
                           E
I'll number all the climbing roses,
     A                    D
Watch to see the milkweed fly.

                              A
And when I hear the soft wind moaning
          E7                        A
Like an angel's voice from a far-off shore,
       A                        E
My days slip by like light snow falling,
       A                        D
Or dry brown leaves blown by my door.
