I'm going to sing a song called Blue Lane Shining in the July Dusk.
Blue Lane shining in the July Dusk.
Deep rising on the road out front of [A] my truck.
Pulled my [F#m] pickup [E] over the hill.
[B] Down the [E] slide, gravel through the cactus.
[D] Give me [A] those warm river [Em]
[E] days again.
Sat down in the shade of a cottonwood tree.
Pretty soon the swamp credits caught [A] me.
Skinny [F#] river [E] kids swim in my [A#] mind.
[B] Puffer bums and [E] cane pole [D] time.
Give me [A] those swamp river [G] days [E] again.
Old memories [B] out in the creek.
Playing hooky [E] with a hobo stick.
Old [B] memories starting to fade.
Take me [D] away.
[E] Holy river

Sweet Susie [E] do you think about me?
