Some of the mothers were giving birth to their babies.
Three babies were born in our company that summer.
My cousin Emily gave birth to a son in Utah,
40 miles north of the Great [C] Salt Lake, one morning.
[A] But the next morning she [C] traveled on till noon when a stop was made and another [F] child was born,
this time Susan [C] Longmire.
And [A] we gave the baby the [C] name Alice Nevada.
[F]
[C] [G]
[C] Follow the typical signs, the hand-painted lines, [G] down the [C] very roads.
[F] Past the long church fire, [C] past the talking water, from where [G]
to [C] who knows.
[Dm]
[F] [C]
There's no [F] way to divide the beauty of the sky from the wild.
[Am] Western [C] plains, where [C] a man that lived in imaginary made his [G] biogramy.
Old lost faces, [Dm] [F]
[C] the land was free [Dm] and the price was [F] right.
[C] [Gm] Dakota on the wall [F] is a white robe woman [C] brought, yet he made him me.
[Gm] Such power in her hand [F] that she has a wagon man [C] of this family.
[Gm] I see Indians that crawl [F] through the snow and recall [C] some history.
[F] Who are the homes and wives, [C] who were the gold rush bride?
Does anybody know?
[F] Do their wives survive [C] the yellow fever lies?
In pages that they wrote, [Dm]
[F] [C]
the land was free [Dm] and it cost their [F] lives.
[C]
[Gm] In mind the thoughts for gold, the [F] family's house was once sold [C] piece by piece.
[Gm] A little stake to claim [F] on a dollar in his knee, [C] so pink blue and eggy.
[Gm] In that it fell back all the [F] recent sisters, they were more [C] than his maid would be.
[Gm] Out comes the madness, [F]
childbirth, loneliness [C] and grief.

[Gm] Out comes the madness, [F]
childbirth, loneliness [C] and grief.
