Oh, look at that!
How you doing, my friend?
Great to have you with us tonight.

[N] Start it out, John.
[D]
It's noon at the door, it's always open, and the path is [Em] slippery.
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag, roll [A] up in a stash [D] behind your couch.
And it's noon, I'm not shackled, if I've forgotten words upon words,
and each thing's a dip-dyed [Em] upon some line.
That keeps you in the back road by the rivers of [A] my memory,
[C#] it keeps you a [A] little [D] on my mind.
And it's not clinging [F#m] to the rocks, and I need [D] planted on their columns [Em] now that finds me.
Or something that somebody says because [G] they [A] thought we'd fit [D] together well.
I'm not a person of [F#m] forgiveness, [D] but I walk along the railroad [Em] track and find
that you're moving [B] on the back roads [G] by the rivers of [A] my memory,
[G] and for hours [A] just [D] a little on my mind.

That you're waving from the back [G] roads by the rivers of [A] my memory,
[Em] every smile and [A] every gentle on [D] my mind.
And John and Rick, you just blow my [Em]
[F#m] mind.
