The Narrows

	  		
    D  G    D 
Let me tell you, 
                                A 
About the place where I used to live 
  D              G              D 
A plot of timber ground, sky so blue 
                          A         D 
With a creek out back and wildlife, too 

                          G            D 
I had a spot on the creek I called the Narrows 
                                            A 
You could step across the rocks and rushing water 
      D                   G             D 
Build a small fire, watch the hawks and sparrows 
                A                  D 
And at sun-down I would loosen the halter 

               G         D 
I would mostly watch and dream 
                          A 
Write a song or a poem or two 
         D           G           D 
Peaceful feelings to me it would seem 
                     A                    D 
And walk back to the cabin in the evening dew 

                      G                 D 
The next day, I would go to the narrows again, 
                                    A 
Always see things that I had missed before 
     D                   G                    D 
Hear natures voices, and trees creakin in the wind 
            A                              D 
Back to the cabin to rest, close the heavy door 

                     G          D 
Those were the times I took for granted 
                                  A 
Not aware of how fortunate that I was 
    D             G          D 
Now the old cabin roof is so slanted 
                A                   D 
Watched over by two lovely mourning doves 

             G             D            indeed 
The Narrows, oh how I miss you......... ....fade.
