Magnolias Caroline Herring
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: G C G C G
I met you once in a [C]living room in [G]Jackson
Thought of you for six years o[C]r more
One [D]hour, you were my secret [G]standard
One [A7]night, you walked back through my [D]door__[C]_
Your [G]lanky frame was [C]not what I re[G]membered
Waking from a long and fitful [C]sleep
But [D]after early morning conver[G]sation
I [A7]drove to north Texas in [D]disbeli[G]ef
CHORUS:
That [C]quaking in my [G]heart was too de[D]ep for [G]words
It tremored and it [Em]trembled and it [Am]ached__[D]_
We [G]spoke our peace out on the [C]Golden Gate Bridge
And [G]sealed it with a kiss under mag[D]noli[G]as[C] [G] [D] [G]
Fortunes not [C]made and not dis[G]covered
There were mentors, we were [C]proteges
From [D]one rite of passage to a[G]nother
We [A7]roughed through the wellsprings of our [D]early [C]days
And [G]underneath that [C]surface there was [G]something
Only you and I could under[C]stand
D G ~ Em
I made my commitment to that long ago
[G]Standing in the hallway down in [D]Dixie[G]land
CHORUS:
And that [C]quaking in my [G]heart too de[D]ep for [G]words
It tremors and it [Em]trembles and it [Am]aches__[D]_
We [G]spoke our peace out on the [C]Golden Gate Bridge
And [G]sealed it with a kiss under mag[D]noli[G]as[C] [G] [D] [G]
There's one thing that [C]I love more than [G]Austin
Or curving 'round the Frio on her [C]turquoise streets
It's your [D]melancholy dread of Sunday [G]evenings
Your [A7]shivering body when it [D]sleeps_[C]_
The [G]future's looking [C]stormy here be[G]fore us
There are wars, calamities and tribu[C]lations
D G ~ Em
We'll hatchet down the windows if we have to
And [G]stand the watch together 'til the [D]morn[G]ing
CHORUS:
'Cause that [C]quaking in my [G]heart's too [D]deep for [G]words
It tremors and it [Em]trembles and it [Am]aches__[D]_
We [G]spoke our peace out on the [C]Golden Gate Bridge
And [G]sealed it with a kiss under mag[D]noli[G]as [C] [G] [D] [G]
