Gentle On My Mind , Glen Campbell , 1967 Vinyl Chords

_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ It's knowing that your door is [Cm] always open and [Eb] your path is free [Fm] to walk _ _
_ _ _ That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled up [Bb] and [Eb] stashed behind your couch
And _ _ _ it's knowing I'm not shackled by [Cm] forgotten words [Eb] and bonds
And the ink stains that are dried upon [Fm] some lines _ _ _ _ _
That keeps you in the back roads by the rivers of [Bb] my memory
It keeps you ever gentle [Eb] on my mind _
_ _ _ It's not clinging to the rocks and [Cm] ivy planted on [Eb] their columns [Fm] now that bind me _
Or _ _ something [C] that somebody [Fm] said because they [Bb] thought we fit [Eb] together walking _
It's _ _ just knowing [Gm] that the world will not [Cm] be cursing [Eb] or forgiving
When I walk along some railroad [Fm] track and find _ _ _ _
That you're moving on the back roads by the rivers [Bb] of my memory
[Fm] And for hours [Bb] you're just gentle [Eb] on my mind _
Though _ _ the wheat fields and the clotheslines and [Cm] the [Eb] junkyards and the highways [Fm] come between us _
And _ _ some other woman's crying to her mother [Bb] cause she turned [Eb] and I was gone
I _ _ _ _ still might run in [Gm] silence, tears [Cm] of joy might stain my [Eb] face
And a summer sun might burn me [Fm] till I'm blind
_ But _ _ not to where I [C] cannot see you [Ab] walking [Bb] on the back [Fm] roads by the rivers [Bb] flowing gentle [Eb] on my mind _
I _ _ dip my [Gm] cup of soup back [Cm] from a gurgling [Eb] crackling cauldron [Fm] in some train yard
My _ _ beard a ruffling [C] coal [Cm] pile and a dirty hat [Bb] pull low [Eb] across my face _ _
_ _ _ Through cupped hands round the tin [Gm] can [Cm] I pretend to hold [Eb] you to my breast [Fm] and find
That _ _ you're waiting from [C] the back roads [Cm] by the rivers of my [Bb] memory
Ever [Fm] smiling, ever [Bb] gentle on [Eb] my mind _ _ _ _ _ _
