Silver Wings of Time Billy Joe Shaver
Verse 1:
[F] The evening sun is sinking,moving h[C/G]omeward
As darkened s[Dm]hadows claim the fight they w[A]on
With upturned [F]eyes closed from the light of d[C/G]arkness
And two crossed h[Dm]ands that r[A7]aised another's [Dm]son
Verse 2:
Gone,oh g[F]one the one who really l[C/G]oved me
For what i [Dm]was not what i ought to b[A]e
Who never qu[F]estioned falling leaves in [C/G]autumn
Nor silver n[Dm]ests built [A7]on a dying tr[Dm]ee
Verse 3:
In gingham g[F]own she warmed me from the c[C/G]oldness
The winter n[Dm]ights seemed warm as summert[A]ime
Another l[F]ove will never touch as d[C/G]eeply
As love that f[Dm]lew on s[A7]ilver wings of t[Dm]ime
Verse 4:
On pension f[F]or the aged she raised a y[C/G]oung man
Who learned the l[Dm]ove of God and other th[A]ings
Now,love he kn[F]ew that twelve times warmed his w[C/G]inter
Has flown aw[Dm]ay on t[A7]ime's bright silver[Dm] wings
