chords
Dm7 low to high�.xx0211
Gsus low to high�.320013

(C) On the banks of the (G) old (C) Bandera
where (Am) roams a (G) barefoot (C) child
(Am) On Sunday (G) golden (C) evenings�.(F) shortcuts
(Dm7) Out along the high wire lines
(G) Down the dusty road

(C)The hills they (G) wear blue (C) bonnets
Like a (Am) pretty (G) cotton (C) gown
And (Am) summer (G) rain falls (C) down like (F) honey
(Dm7) Sweet magnolia blossoms grow
(Gsus) And old men dance(G)

(Dm7) Once we ran bare footed through a (C) clover full of dew
(Dm7) Once we learned to play like lone (C) Comanche�s running loose
(C) What it made it you (G) feel like is a (C) song
(Am)And what it (G) feels like now has (C) gone

AM G F 
AM C F
AM G F 
AM C F

(C) I can hear the (G) screen door (C) slamming
Run a (Am) footer (G) race to the (C) creek
You could (Am) see (G) clean to the (C) bottom��(F) and deeper
(Dm7) Just depends on how u look
(Gsus) Maybe where u (G)stand

(Dm7)Monkey vines and swimming holes lay (C) just around the bend
(Dm7) The rope we used to swing on now hangs (C) tattered in the wind
(C) What it made it (G) feel like is a (C) song
(Am) What it (G) feels like is now has (C) gone
(C) What it made it (G) feel like is a (C) song

Am G F
