Written by Billy Joe Shaver
G C When the mornin? sun comes peepin o-er the mountains D G And natures melody begins to play E7 C I wonder how a song that seems to be so short and sweet A7 D Could be as good again another day Oh I loved you with a passion hot as sun And I picture when you were as fresh as spring I held you when the autumn wind blew in the winter cold And warmed you till the meadow turned to green Now the evenin? sun is sinking, moving homeward As I bid another peaceful day goodbye Our home is on the south side of an old hill country town Nestled here beneath the Texas sky And when you touch my hand I know that you still love me And I know you know I?ll always feel the same Till every season?s day has come and gone and come and gone And come and gone and come and gone again Solo
