Intro: C G D Em

C (x32010@1)                  G (320003@1)    
 They both met in the midnight sky,
D (xx0232@1)            Em (022000@1)Got lost in each other's eyes,
      C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)              Am7 (x02010@1)Then threw away the map and lost the key,
 C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)God sent them the first two kids,
 D (xx0232@1)                 Em (022000@1)                 
 One named Fire, the other one Wind,
          C (x32010@1)             G (320003@1)              Am7 (x02010@1)With a note that floated down for them to read.
              C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)              D (xx0232@1) It said 'You asked what it was like up here for Me.'

C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Mother Earth and Father Ti-ime,
 D (xx0232@1)               Em (022000@1)        C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Fell in love over Appalachian wi-ine,
 D (xx0232@1)                   Em (022000@1)              C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Hit a rough spell and almost lost their mi-inds,
 D (xx0232@1)                    Em (022000@1)              C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Raised a little hell before they fell in li-ine.

C (x32010@1)                  G (320003@1)Fire came out with a restless soul,
      D (xx0232@1)                Em (022000@1)That only got worse as he got older,
        C (x32010@1)       G (320003@1)           Am7 (x02010@1)'Til finally he got too hot to tame. 
 C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)Time said 'Son I know it's hard but,
D (xx0232@1)                   Em (022000@1)You're breaking your Momma's heart.'
     C (x32010@1)                    G (320003@1)                 Am7 (x02010@1)And Fire looked up through tears that made the rain,
                    C (x32010@1)          G (320003@1)         D (xx0232@1)He said 'Why is it everything I love I set aflame?'

C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Mother Earth and Father Ti-ime,
 D (xx0232@1)               Em (022000@1)        C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Fell in love over Appalachian wi-ine,
 D (xx0232@1)                   Em (022000@1)              C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Hit a rough spell and almost lost their mi-inds,
 D (xx0232@1)                    Em (022000@1)              C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Raised a little hell before they fell in li-ine.

C (x32010@1)                  G (320003@1)Wind was born to the open sky with a,
D (xx0232@1)               Em (022000@1)Bad temper and a wandering eye,
        C (x32010@1)             G (320003@1)            Am7 (x02010@1)That kept him on the run for most his days.

C (x32010@1)                 G (320003@1)Earth said 'Listen, hear my child, see,
D (xx0232@1)           Em (022000@1)  
 I used to run that wild,
            C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)           Am7 (x02010@1)'Cause it's hard to put a finger on the pain,
        C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)             D (xx0232@1)But son you can't outrun a thing like shame.'

C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)Then Time and Earth got on their knees,
     D (xx0232@1)                  Em (022000@1)And prayed 'Dear God, oh can't You see?
     C (x32010@1)                 G (320003@1)The Fire's too hot, the Wind's too cold,
     D (xx0232@1)                  Em (022000@1)And loving them is gonna kill us both.'
      C (x32010@1)                  G (320003@1)Then God reached down and took their hands,
 D (xx0232@1)                    Em (022000@1)Dried their tears, and smiled and said,
         C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)              Am7 (x02010@1)'That's kind of what it's like up here for Me.
       C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)            D (xx0232@1)Yeah, loving them will cost you every-thing.'

C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Mother Earth and Father Ti-ime,
 D (xx0232@1)               Em (022000@1)        C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Fell in love over Appalachian wi-ine,
 D (xx0232@1)                   Em (022000@1)              C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Hit a rough spell and almost lost their mi-inds,
 D (xx0232@1)                    Em (022000@1)              C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Raised a little hell before they fell in li-ine.
