NOTE: I don't know how to do tablature very well, so you'll have to
listen to the song and fiddle with D, G and A suspendeds to get the same
sound that John Denver does on his intro...note that the same "riff" that
you play as an intro comes at the end of each chorus...a '|' mark
indicates a measure break...enjoy!--Mike
INTRO: | D | G A |
JGanuary back in 'D55 we rode a GrAeyhound bus through the GDeorgia midnight
GrGandpa was sleDeping and the wAinter sky was clear
GWe hit a bDump and his head jerked bAack a little and he mDumbled something
GHe woke up smDiling, but his eAyes were bright with tears
Said, "I dreaDmed I was bacGk on the farDm...
20 yearGs have passed, Aboy, but the memory sDtill warms meA...
WildfGlowers iAn a Mason JaDr..." G A
He tGold me those old stDories about that Aone-room cabin Din Kentucky
The smGell of the rDain and the wAarm earth in his hands
He slGowly turned and stDared outside; his fAace was mirrored Din the window
GAnd his reflDection flew acrAoss the moonlit land
And he dreamed hDe was back on Gthe farm D
Tilts hiGs head and listens Ato the early soDund of morning A
WildfGlowers iAn a Mason JaDr G A
An Gold man and an eDight-year-old boy rAolling down that mDidnight highway
KGentucky mDemories from a wAinter Georgia night
GI started drDifting off and GrAandpa tucked his coDat around me
I thGink I tried to smDile as I slAowly closed my eyes
And I dreamed I Dwas with himG on the farm D
"GranGdpa, I can hearA the evening winDd out in the corAn...
WildfGlowers iAn a Mason JaDr... G A
WildfGlowers iAn a Mason JaDr... G A
WildfGlowers iAn a Mason JaDr..." G A
And the bGus rolled thrAough the niDght...
