[E]
There's a sad touch of silence [D] in the rhythm tonight
[A] As family and friends [E] gather in
Memories keep flashing [D] in the back of my mind
[A] To the days when you and [E] I were kids
[D] With a broom for a guitar [G] and an old wooden box
[D] We stood on our stage [E] off reaching
You would be Hank, [D] I would be Ernest
As [A] we sang to the West [Am] Texas wind
[Dm] Life's [Am]
[E]
[D] pages turn quickly [G] on the wings [D] of time
Where once was a boy's [A] good man
[D] Holding on tight to [G] a dream [D] and a song
[E] That some folks would not [A] understand
[G] There's so many things [D] I wish I had said
And [A] I never thought I'd run [D] out of time
[G] Somewhere out there [D] there's a vision of an eagle
[A] Preparing to soar through [Am] the sky
From
[G] [Dm]
[Am]
[E]
the West Texas plains [D] to Carnegie Hall
[A] You took the proud Jennings [E] name
And just like you said in [D] the last song you wrote
[A] Your life was bigger than [E] a dream
[D] Now Waylon I love you [G] and God knows I'll miss you
[D] But I've come here to tell you [E] goodbye
With a ache in my heart [D] and tears in my eyes
[A] I'm watching the eagle make his [Am] last fly
[Dm] Now
[Am]
[D] [Am] [E]
[A] you're all hardly what fly we die
There's a sad touch of silence [D] in the rhythm tonight
[A] As family and friends [E] gather in
Memories keep flashing [D] in the back of my mind
[A] To the days when you and [E] I were kids
[D] With a broom for a guitar [G] and an old wooden box
[D] We stood on our stage [E] off reaching
You would be Hank, [D] I would be Ernest
