G D
The song came and went
Am C
Like the times that we spent
G D G
Hiding out from the rain under the carnival tent
G D
I laughed and she smiled
Am C
It would last for awhile
G D G
You don't know what you got till you lose it all again
G
Listen to the mandolin rain
D G
Listen to the music on the lake
Am G D G
Listen to my heart break every time she runs away
G
Listen to the banjo wind
D G
A sad song drifting low
Am G D G
Listen to the tears roll down my face as she turns to go
A cool evening dance
Listening to the bluegrass band takes the chill
From the air till they play the last song
I'll do my time
Keeping you off my mind
But there's moments that I find, I'm not feeling too strong
REPEAT CHORUS
F C
Running on down by the lakeshore
D Am C
She did love the sound of a summer storm
F C
Playin on the lake like a mandolin
Am C D
Now it's washing her away once again
REPEAT CHORUS
The boat's steaming in
I watch the sidewheel spin and
I think about her when I hear the whistle blow
I can't change my mind
I knew all the time that she'd go
But that's a choice I made long ago
REPEAT CHORUS
