(intro) GG 1. Well, it's knowing that your door is always open,Am and your path is free to walk,D that makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled upG and stashed behind your couch.G And it's knowing I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds, and the ink stains that haveAm dried upon some lines,D that keeps you in the back roads by the rivers of my memory, and keeps you ever gentle on myG mind.G 2. It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy planted on their columns nowAm that bind me,D or something that somebody said becauseContinúa después del anunciothey thought we fit togetherG walking.G It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing or forgiven, when I walk along some railroadAm track and findD that you're moving on the back roads by the rivers of my memory, and for hours you're just gentleG on my mind.G 3. Though the wheat fields and the coal mines and the junkyardsAm and the highways come between us,D and some other woman's crying to her mother, 'cause she turned and I wasG gone.G I still might run in silence, tears of joy might stain my face, and the summer sun might burn meAm till I'm blind,D but not to where I cannot see you walking on the back roads by the rivers flowing gentle onG my mind.G 4. I dip my cup of soup from some gurgling, crackling cauldronAm in some train yard,D my beard a roughening coal pile and a dirty hat pulled lowG across my face.G Through cupped hands round a tin can I pretend to hold you to myAm breast and findD that you're waving from the back roads by the rivers of my memory, ever smiling, ever gentle on myG mind.
