Another song
( 2010 version, a waltz, played with steel fingerpicks, on my Taylor, capo-II, C, harp-D)
I know, the day will come
I will play my final chord
I know, one thing for sure
My life is too short
Too short to show
To show all my love
To the people I belong to
I know, when that day will come
I will sing (play) another song
I know, when my eyes saw the light
My life had begun
I know, when I’m six feet out of sight
That I’m not the only one
Not the only one
With struggle in his life
Did so much wrong
I know, when I’m six feet out of sight
I will sing another song
I know, there must be someone in this world
Who can blow my night away
I know, she’s the one and only girl
Strong enough to let me stay
To let me stay
In her cabin
The darkn will soon be gone
I know, when I found that only girl
I will sing another song
I know there must be some way out of here
Out of this loneliness that kills
I know you’ve to pay the price my dear
When I leave these ancient hills
These ancient hills
On a horse with no name
The journey will be long
I know when I’ve found the way out of here
I will sing another song
