Verse 1:
          C            F      C                  G         C
	Blow on you restless wind, up to your old tricks again.
	  C                  G                    C                G           C
	Bear down you Texas sun, you make the desserts dry and the brush fires run.
                         F      C                         G         C
	Splintered wood rusty chains, this old front porch swing remains.
          C                G           C                   G       C
	A pendelum of memories, goes back and forth on a summer breeze.


Chorus:
                 F                     C
	Singing old church hymns and nursery rhymes
	      G                    C
	From the days way back before my time.
                 F                   C
	With a little child upon my knee
	      G
	Singing every sweet word back to me.
	      F             C
	Look how far I had to come
	    G                   C
	To get back where I started from.
                 F
	With a childs wisdom passin' time
	     C                         G        C
	Singing old church hymns and nursery rhymes.

Verse 2:
              C                  F         C                      G      C
	I've run the race I've walked the wire,I paid the price of my desire
             C                          G        C             G       C
	And the only time I've known it all, is just before I took a fall.
	    C           F        C                 G           C
	So howl you lone coyote song, fade to sapphire sky of dawn.
              C                G       C              G       C
	Count me in the lucky men, to send the world around again.

Chorus.
