sonnys dream
ron hynes
G
Sonny lives on a farm on a wide open space,
G7 C G
You can take off your sneakers and give up the race;
D
You could lay down your head by a sweet river bed,
C G D
But Sonny always remembers what it was his Momma said.
G
Sonny carries a load though hes barely a man,
G7 C G
There aint all that to do, but he does what he can;
D
And he watches the sea from a room by the stairs,
C G D
And the waves keep on rollin, theyve done that for years.
G
Sonny dont go away, I am here all alone,
G7 C G
And your daddys a sailor who never comes home;
D
And the nights get so long, and the silence goes on,
C G D
and Im feeling so tired, Im not all that strong.
G
Its a hundred miles to town, Sonnys never been there,
G7 C G
And he goes to the highway and he stands there and stares;
D
And the mail comes at four and the mailman is old,
C G D
But he still dreams his dreams full of silver and gold.
G
Sonnys dreams cant be real, theyre just stories hes read,
G7 C G
Stars in his eyes and dreams in his head;
D
And hes hungry inside, for the wide world outside,
C G D
And I know I cant hold him though Ive tried and Ive tried and Ive tried
G
Sonny dont go away, I am here all alone,
G7 C G
And your daddys a sailor who never comes home;
D
And the nights get so long, and the silence goes on,
C G D
and Im feeling so tired, Im not all that strong.
G
Sonny dont go away, I am here all alone,
G7 C G
And your daddys a sailor who never comes home;
D
And the nights get so long, and the silence goes on,
C G D
and Im feeling so tired, Im not all that strong.
