I'm going to tell you something that I've always remembered.
If you study and try to learn something as if you have no talent,
and then you apply it as if you didn't study, that's the way to do it.
Like all the [G] carving patterns I do, I don't [B] copy any of the older designs that I've cut [F#m] before.
It's already been done, [A] and I like them and I [D] appreciate them.
[Am]
[D]
The rolling [Am] [D] hills of the Piedmont colleges
[A] Had to pasture in the sweet ash for grain
[D]
Then I [Am] pulled [D] in a white cross and got to asking around town
[A] In hopes that I could see you again
You [Bm] had gone up to [A] the mountain higher ground to make a stand
Perched upon a ledge with [D] a rifle in your hand
Singing [A]
I don't need [D] no man
To miss all those days gone by
In long for those better [A] times
[D] I wish I could ease your mind
Like the wind blowing wild through the lonely pine
[A]
[D] [A]
[D] [A] [D]
110, it felt like nothing on an August day
[A] Down to the heart to wash it all away
Hear the [D] holler of the ten point white tail collar
[A] Circle left and [D] promenade
Cicadas in the [A] summertime and sutter in the fall
I [D] can't have the girl I loved and I won't love at all
[A] And I'll catch ground and stop when I fall
[D] To miss all those days gone by
In long for those better [A] times
I wish I could ease [D] your mind
Like the wind blowing wild through the lonely pine
[A]
[D]
[A] [D]
[N]
I wish I could ease your mind
Like the wind blowing wild through the lonely pine
Circle left and promenade
Circle left and promenade
