Intro: D Bm Asus4
D Bm
Hot sand on toes, cold sand in sleeping bags,
I've come to know that memories
Asus4
Were the best things you ever had
D
The summer shone beat down on bony backs
So far from home where the ocean stood
Bm Asus4
Down dust and pine cone.. tracks
D Bm
We slept like dogs down by the fire side
Awoke to the fog all around us
Asus4
The boom of summer time
D
We stood
Bm
Steady as the stars in the woods
Asus4
So happy-hearted
Asus4
And the warmth rang true inside these bones
Bm Asus4
As the old pine fell we sang
D
Just to bless the morning.
D Bm
Hot sand on toes, cold sand in sleeping bags,
I've come to know the friends around you
Asus4
Are all you'll always have
D
Smoke in my lungs, or the echoed stone
Bm
Careless and young, free as the birds that fly
Asus4
With weightless souls now.
D
We stood
Bm
Steady as the stars in the woods
Asus4
So happy-hearted
Asus4 D
And the warmth rang true inside these bones
D
We stood
Bm
Steady as the stars in the woods
Asus4
So happy-hearted
Asus4
And the warmth rang true inside these bones
Bm Asus4
As the old pine fell we sang
D
Just to bless the morning.
D
We grow, grow, steady as the morning
Bm
We grow, grow, older still
Asus4
We grow, grow, happy as a new dawn
Asus4
We grow, grow, older still
D
We grow, grow, steady as the flowers
Bm
We grow, grow, older still
Asus4
We grow, grow, happy as a new dawn
Asus4
We grow, grow, older still
D Bm Asus4
