These Old Wheels

G
Silence is golden some may say, some
 may say
        C                          
I say silence is an aimless time to
 G      D/F#
 kill
      Em                D/F#      
Its a restless feeling pounding on
    C
 my brain both night and day
              G                   
and these old wheels of mine spin 
D/F#         G
louder as it builds


[Verse 2]
G
Yes the sky would surely fall if my 
dear eardrum did fail
   C                              
to beat a single time, in time or 
G      D/F#
out
 Em              D/F#            
Some may make it out alright and 
C
some may have never known
              G                   
but these old wheels spin far too 
D/F#          G
loud, far too loud

[Verse 3]
G
For I love to hear a chorus from the
 morning bird choir
        C                          
and the sounds of coffee boiling on
     G      D/F#
 the pot
      Em              D/F#        
How I love to hear I love you in a
  C
 dry morning tone
         G                D/F#
And just assume that if I can’t 
                     G
these wheels would stop


[Verse 4]
G
Yes happy is the day I lay my poor 
head down
     C                           
with neither trial nor trouble to 
  G      D/F#
compete
          Em              D/F#    
with the chirp of summer crickets 
      C
nor a tree frog’s croak
              G                
And these old wheels slow down 
D/F#                  G
enough so that I may sleep


[Verse 5]
G
Silence is golden some may say, some
 may say
        C                          
I say silence is an aimless time to
 G      D/F#
 kill
      Em                D/F#      
Its a restless feeling pounding on
    C
 my brain both night and day
              G                   
and these old wheels of mine spin 
D/F#         G
louder as it builds
