A              Bm   A    G                    Asus4   A         
It seems that the mind runs wild when you’re all alone
    G           D  Dsus4 D   G     A            D Dsus4 D  G
The way that it could be,    the way that it should be
A             Bm    A   G     A               D    Dsus4  D
Things I’d do differently, if I could do them again


[Verse 2]
N.C.              G    A   Bm   G              D Dsus4 D  G
I’ve always loved springtime,   the passing of winter
    A            Bm   A   G                Asus4   A
The green of the new leaves and life going on
    G              D Dsus4 D   G    A           D Dsus4 D  G
The promise of morning,        the long days of summer
A              Bm  A  G     A                 D Dsus4 D
Warm nights of loving her, beneath the bright stars


[Verse 3]
N.C.            G   A   Bm  G                D Dsus4 D  G        
I’m just an old cowboy,     from high Colorado
   A      Bm   A   G                       Asus4   A
To old to ri---de anymore,     too blind to see
    G          D Dsus4 D G   A            D Dsus4 D  G
I sleep in the city now,     away from my mountains
A              Bm  A  G   A               D Dsus4 D  G
Away from the cabin      we always called home


[Bridge]
A           D Dsus4 D   G     A   D Dsus4 D G
I dreamed I left there, on an old palamino
A          Bm  A  G                     A   G/A  A
Whispering Jes---se    rode right by my side
A              D Dsus4 D  G    A                 D Dsus4 D G
I long to hold her,        to hear her soft breathing
A                Bm   A   G     A          D Dsus4 D
The touch of her cool hands, on my fevered brow


[Instrumental]
G   A   D       G   A   D      G   A   Bm   G   A   G/A   A


[Outro]
   A       D     G        A            D       Dsus4 D G
Whispering Jesse,   still rides in the mountains
    A         D    Dsus4 D   G     A        D    Dsus4 D
Still sings in the canyons,                      still lives in my heart
