Hey I've been out walking, i ain't done too much talking these days
D         G                  D       G
Ah Lord I sit alone and weep all the time to hesitate
D              G          D
Ah now darling don't you cry
F#       Bm                     D        G
I'm just waiting for the sun to shine

{Repeat the same chords for the rest of the song}

Ain't got no heart to sell you
Ain't got no time to tell you
All the answers you came to hear
I just came down from the mountain
And now you know me when I was just a child in your heart
I been waiting so long to say it

I been losing but I been chosing
I've been living on borrowed time
Trying to pay back the debts I owe you
Ah but I never show you why the river could be a woman
Why the sky will ever open
I just want to be here tonight love

I wanna take myself a plane back home
I got a sweet little woman oh but I'm gone now
And I wonder what my little darling does for love
She's walking all alone and here I'm trying to get back home
Hey tell me is there a sadder place to be right now
Ah but now I could here those mountains ringing all around me

I feel it won't take too long to get through it and sing a song
Ah but I don't know if my love can last, oh no
You know I just came in on the rail
Ah damn to keep me another shirt tail
and I been trying to make it ever since oh love
I got a name but mama don't you know I'm ashamed

I been out walking now I ain't been too in much talking
Oh Lord my heart's got too much to yield
Yes but I bring you in now darling
Remember when I was so strong how the liquor and women wore me down
I'm on my knees begging oh please

Hear the mountains ringing, hear the birds a singing
Feel the sun shine on your hands
Just smell the river flow well now
I know my love is growing hear the way the children smile
Makes you glad that you been chosing
Which time you been losing
Ah ain't it great being alive
