                 D (xx0232@1)                   A (x02220@1)Singing old church hymns and nursery rhymes
	      E (022100@1)                  A (x02220@1)From the days way back before my time.
                 D (xx0232@1)                 A (x02220@1)With alittle (x02210@1)child upon my knee
	      E (022100@1)Singing every sweet word back to me.
	      D (xx0232@1)           A (x02220@1)Look how far I had to come
	    E (022100@1)                 A (x02220@1)To get back where I started from.
                 D (xx0232@1)With achilds (x02210@1)wisdom passin' time
	     A (x02220@1)                       E (022100@1)      A (x02220@1)Singing old church hymns and nursery rhymes.

             A (x02220@1)                        E (022100@1)      A (x02220@1)           E (022100@1)     A (x02220@1)And the only time I've known it all, is just before I took afall. (x02210@1)	    A (x02220@1)         D (xx0232@1)      A (x02220@1)               E (022100@1)         A (x02220@1)So howl you lone coyote song, fade to sapphire sky of dawn.
