Picker s Lament
Capo: 5
[Intro]:
[Verse]: Well I came here to see you this mornin ,
And they told me that you d moved away.
I was hopin that I d get to see you,
We had many things left to say.
We played 20 years on the road then,
Many places I can t quite recall.
It was the best of times then and I d do it again,
But time robs the choice from us all.
[Break]:
I guess that the boys have all drifted away,
I guess that we ll never quite know
But I m hopin they re playin in some little bar,
It makes me feel good to think so.
Doo do doo 2x:
Well I came here this mornin to see you
I ve been travelin from so far away
I needed to see you just one more time
I needed to know what you d say
Did we ever make hearts sore with feeling?
Did we ever bring a tear to their eye?
Were the songs that we played just some vague masquerade
As we d grab for their money and ride?
Doo do doo:
Well I came here to see you this mornin ,
But they told me that you d moved away.
I was hopin that I d get to see you,
We had many things left to say.
