Topic: On The Wings Of Morning Doves
I wrote this song this morning because Jan threw down the gauntlet challenge for the chordie song of the month 
It's got all the words in it as usual. I kinda got a little bit on the soapbox here, but i tried to mask it a bit.
Let me know what you think
(I also will post it in the SOTM Thread)
On The Wings Of Morning Doves by Jim Kenyon
[A]I dreamt I was riding a horse with no name
Through an octopuses’ garden in the [E]night
[E]There were free birds flying in the clouds
And Buffalo soldiers forced to [A]fight
.
[A]There were iron butterfliesin the air
As werewolves of London howled at the [E] moon
[E]while politicians dove down their rabbit holes
with paper tigers dancing to the money [A]tune
.
Chorus
[D]Dreams can be a place where no child goes hungry
[A]A place where the world knows only love
[D]a place where heart’s are filled with compassion
and [E]peace is found on the [D]wings of morning [A]doves
.
[A]black crows were singing hallelujah mama
while young people wondered for what it's [E]worth
[E]and all along the watchtower it seems
no one cares that blood still stains our[A]earth ?
.
[A] I saw a Lion sleeping all through the night
it was peaceful on the plains of the[E]savanna
but then I saw mama's crying, and good men dying
as men with hoods burned crosses in Ala[A]bama
.
Chorus
[D]Dreams can be a place where no child goes hungry
[A]A place where the world knows only love
[D]a place where heart’s are filled with compassion
and [E]peace is found on the [D]wings of morning [A]doves
.
[A]As the dawn was starting to end the night
my dream put me in a car, it was was a '59 [E]Chevy
[E]the snow was flying, the radio said the music was dying
so I drove myself down by the river to the[A]levee
.
[A]My dream took me to a party at the Bohemian club
The members all had Rolls Royce’s with plastic[E] Jesus'
[E]I saw bombs with people’s names hidden in the clouds
like that apple in Eden, seems we do whatever [A]pleases.
.
Chorus
[D]Dreams can be a place where no child goes hungry
[A]A place where the world knows only love
[D]a place where heart’s are filled with compassion
and [E]peace is found on the [D]wings of morning [A]doves
.
Outgo- a little slower
yeah and [E]peace is found on the [D]wings of morning [A]doves
keep dreaming that[E]peace is found on the [D]wings of morning [A]doves
