[C]
[G] [C]
It's knowing [Em] that your door is always [Am] open and your [G] path is free to [Dm] walk.
That makes me [D] tenderly my sleeping [Dm] bag rolled up and [G] stashed behind [C] your back.
It's knowing I'm not shackled by [C] forgot the words of false
or the extent that I've dropped on [Dm] some lines.
That keeps you on the [D] back roads by [Dm] the rim inside my [G] memory.
[D] Keeps you ever [G] gentle on [C] my mind.
[G] It's [C] not clinging to [Em] the rocks and [C] ivy planted on [G] their columns [Dm] now that I find it.
Or something that [A] somebody said [D] because they [G] thought we'd fit together a bargain.
It's [C] just knowing that [G] you will not [C] be cursed or [G] forgiven.
[C] I walked along some railroad [Dm] track and find.
That you're moving [C#] through the back roads [D] by the rim inside [G] my memory.
Smiling ever gentle on [C] my mind.
[G] Though the wheat fields and the poles line [C] at the junctions [G] and the highways come [D]
[Dm] between us.
And some other woman's crying to [C] her mom,
how [G] she turned the loud [C] voice.
I still might [G] find her silence [C] tears of joy might stain [G] my face.
[C] And then some sun might find me [Dm] till I'm blind.
But not to where [A] I cannot [C] see you walk through [G] the back roads.
Smiling ever gentle [C] on my mind.
I tip my [G] comfort shoe back [C] on the curb and grab [G] the big car and [Dm] head in some train yard.
My hair [A] crosses, holds [C] out, thirty [G] half foot low across [C] my face.
You smile at me.
You come dancing [G] round the street and [C] I pretend and [G] hold you to my [Dm] breast and mind.
That you're moving [A] through the back roads by the rim [G] inside my memory.
Smiling ever gentle [C] on my mind.
You're just gentle on my mind.
[F] [Fm] [C]
