John Denver - Poems, Prayers And Promises

(verse 1)

D G/A - D

I've been laid to thinking about my lifetime,

G/A

All the things I've done and how it's been,

D G/A D

And I can't help believin' in my own mind,

G/A

I know I'm gonna hate to see it end,

(verse 2)

D G/A D

I've seen alot of sunshine, slept out in the rain.

G/A

Spent a night or two all on my own,

D G/A D

I've known my lady's pleasures, had myself some friends,

G/A

Spent a time or two in my own home,

(chorus)

G A7 D G

And I have to say it now, it's been a good life all in all,

D Bm Em

It's really fine to have a chance to hang around,

A7 G A7 D G

And lie there by the fire, and watch the evenin' tire,

D Bm Em7 A7

while all my friends and my old lady, sit and pass the pipe around,

G Fm G D

And talk of poems and prayers and promises, and things that we believe in,

Dmaj7 G A G

How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care,

Fmaj7 Em D

How long it's been since yesterday, what about tomorrow,

Dmaj7 G A D - G - D

And what about our dreams, and all the memories we share,

(verse 3)

D G/A D

The days, they pass so quickly now, nights are seldom long,

G/A

Time around me whispers when it's cold,

D G/A D

Changes some how frighten me, still I have to smile,

G/A

It turns me on to think of growing old,

(verse 4)

D G/A D

For tho' my life's been good to me, there's still so much to do,

G/A

So many things my mind has never known,

D G/A D

I'd like to raise a family, I'd like to sail away,

G/A

And dance across the mountains on the moon,

(chorus)

G A7 D G

And I have to say it now, it's been a good life all in all,

D Bm Em

It's really fine to have a chance to hang around,

A7 G A7 D G

And lie there by the fire, and watch the evenin' tire,

D Bm Em7 A7

while all my friends and my old lady, sit and pass the pipe around,

G Fm G D

And talk of poems and prayers and promises, and things that we believe in,

Dmaj7 G A G

How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care,

Fmaj7 Em D

How long it's been since yesterday, what about tomorrow,

Dmaj7 G A D - G - D

And what about our dreams, and all the memories we share,
