James Otto - Song of the Violin guitar chord

Song of the Violin--James Otto

written by James Otto

This is a beautiful song from one of the Musik Mafia's oft-overlooked members.

Intro: D A G D (twice)

D

The last fifty years have seen laughter and tears

A G D

And your hair slowly fade to gray

Your children are grown now and it's hard to believe how

A G D

The years have just all slipped away

CHORUS:

Bm

But in time, you've gained a wisdom

A D

That seems to elude the young

Bm

And each line that now marks your face

A D

Tells the stories of all that you've done

G A G A D Bm

So fear not the passing of the days

A G A D

Like the song of the violin you only grow sweeter with age

D A G D

As time's pages turn you lived and you learned

What truly mattered most

Is family and friends and in the end

Finding peace in the path that you chose

CHORUS

solo D A G D (twice)

CHORUS

A G A D

Like the song of the violin you only grow sweeter with age

The last fifty years have seen laughter and tears
