****************** SILVER WINGS OF TIME *********************
written and performed by Billy Joe Shaver.
Verse 1:
F C/G
The evening sun is sinking,moving homeward
Dm A
As darkened shadows claim the fight they won
F C/G
With upturned eyes closed from the light of darkness
Dm A7 Dm
And two crossed hands that raised another's son
Verse 2:
F C/G
Gone,oh gone the one who really loved me
Dm A
For what i was not what i ought to be
F C/G
Who never questioned falling leaves in autumn
Dm A7 Dm
Nor silver nests built on a dying tree
Verse 3:
F C/G
In gingham gown she warmed me from the coldness
Dm A
The winter nights seemed warm as summertime
F C/G
Another love will never touch as deeply
Dm A7 Dm
As love that flew on silver wings of time
Verse 4:
F C/G
On pension for the aged she raised a young man
Dm A
Who learned the love of God and other things
F C/G
Now,love he knew that twelve times warmed his winter
Dm A7 Dm
Has flown away on time's bright silver wings
