To Theoda Lyrics & Tabs by Ty Maxon
To Theoda
guitar chords lyrics
cold in the kitchen you looked for the key to your dirty and dark attic door a dusty piece of my history you did hold my great gradad's banjo and asked me to please play a song for me and my sister Mary I won't keep you long just one before you go
cold in the room where they took you to live your last day before the day you passed I came to say hello and goodbye we did sing don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me until I do come on marching home memory filled your eyes and nearly killed my soul
I'm going to make a bad mistake and turn away cause it don't help to pray
cold under the sun preacher spoke all in rhyme about the holy and divine I did not hear him cause he can't tell me the truth there's only ashes left of you that I did place in the ground where you'll lie next to your husband waiting many years for you to come on marching home I said Theoda goodbye as I knelt down in sorrow now I don't feel so sad I just feel all alone
