(intro) F5 D5 x 4 (verse) F5 D5 Another autumn night it's getting chilly F5 D5 Birds are gathering round getting ready F5 D5 The Moon and the sun are both so heavy G5 Barely off the ground A5 Bb5 He's turning the wheels of his daddy's plow A5 Bb5 Sowing the land that's been handed down G5 C5 F5 Singing a song from a book that's faded brown F5 D5 (verse) F5 D5 Mary she's on the step she's waiting F5 D5 Hair is like a light from heaven F5 D5 The family comes together now G5 Believe in what they found A5 Bb5 Grace is said at the table round A5 Bb5 A prayer before they settle down G5 C5 F5 Side by side in a book that's faded brown (chorus) Bb5 C5 D5 Have you ever wondered why? Bb5 C5 D5 There's a rainbow in the sky? Bb5 C5 It's all the tears C5 D5 That God has been crying G5 And it leaves the world And it leaves the world C5 With a rainbow for a crown (verse) F5 D5 Those that said, said they're the outsiders F5 D5 G5 Are only easy riders on a horse that's going lame A5 Bb5 For the way of the world is upside down A5 Bb5 They can all hold hands When they walk through town G5 C5 F5 Side by side with a book that's faded brown [Garth accordion bridge] (chorus) Bb5 C5 D5 Have you ever wondered why? Bb5 C5 D5 There's a rainbow in the sky? Bb5 C5 It's all the tears C5 D5 That God has been crying G5 And it leaves the world And it leaves the world C5 With a rainbow for a crown Whoa (verse) F5 D5 By the way have I told you already F5 D5 G5 That his parents were buried by a tree that they loved A5 Bb5 The way of the world is upside down A5 Bb5 Even the flowers stood without a sound G5 C5 Pressed together in a book that's faded G5 C5 Pressed together in a book that's faded G5 C5 D5 Pressed together in a book that's faded brown G5 C5 F5 Bound together in a book that's faded brown
