Billy Joe Shaver - Silver Wings Of Time guitar chord

#

****************** SILVER WINGS OF TIME *********************

written and performed by Billy Joe Shaver.

Verse 1:

F C/G

The evening sun is sinking,moving homeward

Dm A

As darkened shadows claim the fight they won

F C/G

With upturned eyes closed from the light of darkness

Dm A7 Dm

And two crossed hands that raised another's son

Verse 2:

F C/G

Gone,oh gone the one who really loved me

Dm A

For what i was not what i ought to be

F C/G

Who never questioned falling leaves in autumn

Dm A7 Dm

Nor silver nests built on a dying tree

Verse 3:

F C/G

In gingham gown she warmed me from the coldness

Dm A

The winter nights seemed warm as summertime

F C/G

Another love will never touch as deeply

Dm A7 Dm

As love that flew on silver wings of time

Verse 4:

F C/G

On pension for the aged she raised a young man

Dm A

Who learned the love of God and other things

F C/G

Now,love he knew that twelve times warmed his winter

Dm A7 Dm

Has flown away on time's bright silver wings
