Willies Song

 
D 
Lately youve been traveling more than you are here 
        A                        G               D 
As your dreams describe a circle growing year by year 
    G                  A            D               Bm7 
The postcards that you send from Vancouver or South Bend 
G          Em7              A 
Recall the friend too long away. 
 

 
        D 
May the rain run off your shoulders when you're caught in a storm 
         A                            G                 D 
When the frost comes a-calling may it find you safe and warm 
         G        A             D           Bm7 
May your place be set, may your promises be kept, 
        G        A           D 
May you never forget you are loved. 
 

 
       D 
It was storming in Seattle when your car wouldn't start 
       A                           G                 D 
It was sunny in Salinas, where you nearly broke your heart 
       G              A              D                 Bm7 
It was snowing in St. Paul where the people filled the hall 
        Em7                                    A 
And you sent them all home singing through the cold. 
 

 
        D 
May the rain run off your shoulders when you're caught in a storm 
         A                            G                 D 
When the frost comes a-calling may it find you safe and warm 
         G        A             D           Bm7 
May your place be set, may your promises be kept, 
        G        A           D 
May you never forget you are loved. 
 

 
D 
Night falls hard in a faraway place 
         A                           G                D 
When you never knew the name and you can't recall the face 
     G                    A                 D               Bm7 
Your timing's off, you're tired, you can't imagine why they hired you 
G                   Em7             A 
We are there in the silence by your side. 
 

 
        D 
May the rain run off your shoulders when you're caught in a storm 
         A                            G                 D 
When the frost comes a-calling may it find you safe and warm 
         G        A             D           Bm7 
May your place be set, may your promises be kept, 
        G        A           D 
May you never forget you are loved. 
         G        A             D           Bm7 
May your place be set, may your promises be kept, 
        G        A           G     D 
May you never forget you are loved.
