[G]
You [D]
[Em]
were dancing [G] on the crepe bank, my eyes were narrowing [D] here.
[Em]
Those best years [C]
of our lives, [D] [G]
we didn't have a care.
[Em] Going 90 [C] miles an hour, [A]
[G] trucking [D] in old dirt road.
We [Em]
were just two [C] young kids, [A] [D] back where the dawn [G] will fly.

[D]
[Em]
Graduation [G] came,
[G] you was a big city [D] band.
[Em] And I was [C] going nowhere fast, [G]
so I just hung [D] around.
[Em] By the next time I seen [G] you, your love had [D] turned cold.
[Em]
So I guess you broke [C] my heart, [G] [D] back where the dawn will fly.
[C] Spruced white on the [Em] blue, in that April moon.
[G] It could have been forever, darling, [D] that we stayed together.
But you had to [E] go, [Bm] and [C] time don't slow.
[D] Took you farther from your home, back where the dawn will fly.
[Bm]
[C] [G] [G]
[D]
[Em]
So I [C] took a drink, [G]
[G] I guess you wouldn't [D] recognize me.
My
[Bm] soul's been torn and [C] twisted, [G]
like an old [D] dogwood tree.
[Em] We used to talk [G] about forever,
[D] that was a million miles [D] ago.
[Em] So I see you, [G] if I see you, [D] back where the dawn will fly.
[G] Spruced white on [Em] the blue, in that April [C] moon.
[G] If you ain't dead set on leaving, and you [D] miss the one you need.
Just grin [Em] and grin, and remember [C] when.
[G] You had that hand [D] to hold, back where the dawn will fly.
[Em]
[C]
[A] Back where the dawn will fly.
[G] [D]
