SONG: SNOWIN' ON RATON
ARTIST: TOWNES VAN ZANDT
Key Bb U6-1
D A D
Well when the wind don't blow in Amarillo,
A D
And the moon along the Gunnison don't rise,
G D
Shall I cast my dreams upon your love babe,
D A D
And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes.
CHORUS:
D G D A
It's snowin' on Raton..., come morning,
G D
I'll be through them hills and gone.
A D
D A D
Oh Mother thinks the road is long and lonely,
A D
Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine,
G D
Well little darling thinks the road is soft and lovely,
D A D
I'm thankful that old road's a friend of mine.
CHORUS:
A D
D A D
Ah, bid the years good-bye, you cannot still them,
A D
Well you cannot turn the circles of the sun,
G D
Well you cannot count the miles until you feel them,
D A D
And you cannot hold a lover that is gone.
CHORUS:
A D
D A D
Well, tomorrow the mountains will be sleeping
A D
Silent beneath a blanket green and blue
G D
Ah but I shall hear the silence they are keeping
D A D
I'll bring all their promises to you.
