Over by the wildwood

Dm
|
Hot summer night
|
Gm
|
We lay in the tall grass
|
C
|
til the mornin' light
|
|
If I had my way I'd never
|
get the urge to roam
|
But a young man serves his country
|
and an old man guards the home
|
|
Don't send me no distant salutations
|
or silly souvenirs from far away
|
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
|
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day
|
|
I never gave a second thought
|
Never crossed my mind
|
What's right, what's not
|
I ain't the judgin' kind
|
I can take the darkest oh
|
Storms in the skies
|
But we all got certain trials
|
burnin' up inside
|
|
Don't put me in a frame upon the mantle
|
For memories turn dusty, old, and gray
|
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
|
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day
|
|
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
|
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
|
|
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
|
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day
|
|
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
|
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
|
|
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
|
Ooh ooh ooh
|
