[B]
[C#]
[B] Blow on, [Em] you restless [B] wind, Up to your [F#] old tricks [B] again.
Bear down, [E] you [F#] Texas sun, You [B] make the deserts dry [F#] and the brush [B] fires rough.
Splintered wood, [E] [B] rusty chain, This old [F#] front porch [B] swing remains.
The pendulum [E] of [F#] memory, [B] Goes back and [F#] forth on [B] a summer breeze.
[E] Singing old church hymns [B] and nursery rhymes, From [F#] the days way back [B] before my time.
With [E] the little child [B] upon mine, [F#] Singing every sweet word back to me.
[E] Look how far [B] I had to come, [F#] To get back where [G#m] I started from.
[E] With the child's [B] wisdom passing [E] time, [G#m] Singing old church [F#] hymns and [B] nursery rhymes.
[C#] [B]
I've run the race, I've walked the wire, I've paid the price of [B] my desire.
And the only time [F#] I've known it all, [B] Was just before [F#] I took [B] a fall.
So howl, you lone [E] coyote [B] song, And fade the [F#] sapphire [B] sky of dawn.
And count me [E] in, the [F#] lucky man, [B] To send the [F#] world [B] around again.
[E] Singing old church hymns and [B] nursery [F#] rhymes, From the days way back [B] before my time.
With [E] the little child [B] upon mine, [F#] Singing every sweet word back to me.
[E] Look how far [B] I had to come, [F#] To get back where [G#m] I started from.
[E] With the child's [B] wisdom passing [E] time, [G#m] Singing old church [F#] hymns and [B] nursery rhymes.
