         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
