Cruising Timber on the Divide

(D) School Marms, and (G) Widow (D) Makers

Jargon for tree- types you run into (A) cruising

Double (D) crotches, and (G) dead limb (D) hangers

Must be aware to (A) or you will be (D) losing

And (D) then theres (G) barber (D) chairs

The stumps that werent cut (A) clean

The (D) saws handled (G) with lack of (D) care

Barber Chairs can (A) impale you if not (D) seen

Rotten logs with (G) bark that is (D) loose

Play havoc on bone-dry corked (A) boots

One (D) careless footstep (G) and you are in natures (D) noose

Has (D) sent many a (A) cruiser down its (D) shoots

But it is not all (G) danger---by (D) far,

There is gorgeous undergrowth below the tree (A) crowns

So (D) quiet and beautiful, you (G) forget where you (D) are

Soak in the majesty briefly, (A) then move on, without a (D) sound

To cruise these giant (G) timbers west of the great (D) divide

Is an experience that few have (A) known

The (D) beginning of man and (G) nature (D) collide

I hold in awe... what (A) God has (D) sown

Cruising timber on the (G) great (D) divide.

An experience that (A) few have (D) known
