A                 G
In another time's forgotten space
A                G
your eyes looked from your mother's face
A                  G
Wildflower seed on the sand and stone
A                  G
may the four winds blow you safely home 

A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew

A                    g
ill tell you where the four winds dwell
A                   G
In Franklin's tower there hangs a bell
A                 G
It can ring, turn night to day
A                 G
Ring like fire when you lose your way


A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A                  G
God help the child who rings that bell
A                            G
It may have one good ring left, you can't tell
A                  G
One watch by night, one watch by day
A                            G
If you get confused just listen to the music play

Thats a rough draft of the solo, he does alot of bends on the 16 
but i didnt catch everything so listen to the solo, but this is the area where he plays





A                  G
Some come to laugh their past away
A                    G
Some come to make it just one more day
A                 G
Whichever way your pleasure tends
A                     G
if you plant ice you're gonna harvest wind


A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A                    G
In Franklin's Tower the four winds sleep
A                     G
Like four lean hounds the lighthouse keep
A                  G
Wildflower seed on the sand and stone
A                  G
may the four winds blow you home again

A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A            G
Roll away ... the dew
A               G
You better roll away the dew
