SNOWING ON RATON


Capo 2nd Fret



                      G                                    C
Well when the wind donât blow in Amarillo
               G                                                    C
And the moon along the Gunnison donât rise
            F                                                   C
Shall I cast my dreams upon your love babe
             C                         F                    C
And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes

CHORUS
               C                F        C Well itâs snowing on Raton
              G                     F                                    C
Come mornin Iâll be through them hills and gone
               C                F         C
Well itâs snowing on Raton
              G                    F                                     C
Come mornin Iâll be through them hills and gone

Well mother thinks the road is long and lonely
Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine
Well little darlin thinks the road is soft and lovely
Iâm thankful that old road is a friend of mine

CHORUS

Well bid the years goodbye you cannot still them
You cannot turn the circles of the sun
You cannot count the miles till you feel them
And you cannot hold a lover that is gone

Tomorrow the mountains will be sleeping
Silently the blanket green and blue
But I shall hear the silence they are keeping
Iâll Bring all their promises to you

CHORUS
