Wildflowers In A Mason Jar

INTRO:  : D : G A :

 G               D          
January back in '55 we rode a 
    A                        D
Greyhound bus through the Georgia 
midnight
  G            D              A
Grandpa was sleeping and the winter 
sky was clear
G         D                       
We hit a bump and his head jerked 
 A                    D
back a little and he mumbled 
something
G            D               A
He woke up smiling, but his eyes 
were bright with tears
                   D            G 
        Said, "I dreamed I was 
          D
back on the farm...
        G              A          
        20 years have passed, boy,
          D            A
 but the memory still warms me...

    G                  D          
He told me those old stories about
      A              D
 that one-room cabin in Kentucky

      G           D            A
The smell of the rain and the warm 
earth in his hands
     G                 D          
He slowly turned and stared 
        A                D
outside; his face was mirrored in 
the window
G           D              A
And his reflection flew across the 
moonlit land
                 D             G  
        And he dreamed he was back
         D
 on the farm
         G                  A     
        Tilts his head and listens
         D              A
 to the early sound of morning
      G       A           D      
        Wildflowers in a Mason 
   G  A
Jar
   G               D              
An old man and an eight-year-old 
    A                 D
boy rolling down that midnight 
highway
 G        D               A
Kentucky memories from a winter 
Georgia night
G           D                A  
I started drifting off and 
                D
Grandpa tucked his coat around me
    G                D          A
I think I tried to smile as I slowly
 closed my eyes
                 D           G    
        And I dreamed I was with 
           D
him on the farm
           G              A    
        "Grandpa, I can hear the 
           D               A
evening wind out in the corn...
      G       A           D 
        Wildflowers in a Mason 
           G  A
Jar...
      G       A           D 
        Wildflowers in a Mason 
           G  A
Jar...
      G       A           D 
        Wildflowers in a Mason 
           G  A
Jar..."
         G            A      
And the bus rolled through the 
    D
night...
