[C] [G] Lately, [C] [F] I've been thinking [C] how much I [G] miss my lady, [Bm] Alvarena [Em] in the [Dm] [C] cornfield, riding
[G] in the [C] daybreak, [G] living [F] like a lost and flower, [C] running [G] through the grass for [Am] [Bm] hours, rolling
[Em] down to the [Dm] hay, [C] like a puppy [G]
child, [D] and when it [A] rains, the rain falls [C] down, [G] washing out
the cattle town, [D] and she's [A] far away somewhere, [C] [G] in her Ida down, [Bm] and she [E] dreams of crystal
straw strings, [Am] of days [C] gone by, [F] when we would lean, [Ab] laughing, fit to burst, [C] upon each other,
[D]

hours, [Em] rolling through the hay, [Gm] [C] like a [G] puppy child, [D] and when it [A] rains, the rain falls down,
[C] washing [D] out [G] the cattle town, [D] and [G] she's [A] far away somewhere, [C] in [G] her Ida down, [F] and she dreams [E] of
crystal strings, [Am] of days [C] gone by, [F] when we would lean, [Ab] laughing, fit to burst, [Am] upon each other,
[G] [Am] oh, if [G] only, [F] I could nestle, [C] in [G] the cradle of your cabin, [Bm] my arms around [Em] your shoulder,
[Dm] [C] the window [G] wide and open, [Am] while [G] the sycamore, [F] and the swallow, [C] yeah, are [G] playing in the fashion,
