Silver Wings Of Time

Verse 1: 
      F                                    C/G  
        The evening sun is sinking,moving homeward 
                     Dm                           A 
        As darkened shadows claim the fight they won 
                      F                              C/G  
        With upturned eyes closed from the light of darkness 
                         Dm         A7              Dm  
        And two crossed hands that raised another's son

                 F                       C/G    
        Gone,oh gone the one who really loved me 
                   Dm                       A 
        For what i was not what i ought to be 
                    F                          C/G     
        Who never questioned falling leaves in autumn 
                    Dm         A7           Dm 
        Nor silver nests built on a dying tree

                    F                           C/G     
        In gingham gown she warmed me from the coldness 
                    Dm                          A 
        The winter nights seemed warm as summertime 
                 F                        C/G 
        Another love will never touch as deeply 
                      Dm      A7              Dm      
        As love that flew on silver wings of time

                         Dm                     A   
        Who learned the love of God and other things 
                      F                                C/G  
        Now,love he knew that twelve times warmed his winter 
                    Dm     A7                 Dm      
        Has flown away on time's bright silver wings
