Poems, Prayers, and Promises Chords & Lyrics by John Denver
Poems, Prayers, and Promises
guitar chords lyrics
[D]I've been lately thinking About[G] my life's [D]time
All the things I've done And how it's [G]been
[D]And I can't help believing In my[G] own mind
[D]I know I'm gonna hate to see it [G]end
[D]I've seen a lot of sunshine [G]Slept out in the [D]rain
Spent a night or two all on my [G]own
[D]I've known my lady's pleasures [G]Had myself some [D]friends
And spent a night or two in my own [G]home
[G]And I have to say it [A7]now It's been a [D]goodlife all in[G] all
It's really [D] fine To have a [Em]chance to hang [A7] around
And [Em] lie there by the [G]fire And [D] watch the evening [G] tire
While all my [D]friends and my old [Bm7] lady
Sit and [Em] pass the pipe [A7] around
And talk of [G] poems and prayers and promis [Fm] es
And [G] things that we believe[D] in
How sweet it is to [Em] love someone How [G] right it is to [A7] care
How [G] long it's been since [Fm] yesterday
And [Em] what about [D] tomorrow
And what about our [Fm] dreams And all the [G] memories we [A7] share
[D] [G] [D]
The [D]days they pass so quickly now
[G] Nights are seldom [D]long
And time around me whispers when it's [G] cold
The [D]changes somehow frighten me
[G] Still I have to [D]smile
It turns me on to think of growing [G] old
[D]For though my life's been good to me
There's [G] still so much to [D]do
So many things my mind has never [G] known
I'd [D]like to raise a family
I'd [G] like to sail [D]away
And dance across the mountains on the [G] moon
[G]And I have to say it [A7]now It's been a [D]goodlife all in[G] all
It's really [D] fine To have a [Em]chance to hang [A7] around
And [Em] lie there by the [G]fire And [D] watch the evening [G] tire
While all my [D]friends and my old [Bm7] lady
Sit and [Em] pass the pipe [A7] around
And talk of [G] poems and prayers and promis [Fm] es
And [G] things that we believe[D] in
How sweet it is to [Em] love someone How [G] right it is to [A7] care
How [G] long it's been since [Fm] yesterday
And [Em] what about [D] tomorrow
And what about our [Fm] dreams And all the [G] memories we [A7] share
