               SAUNDERS FERRY LANE
                  SAMMI SMITH
INTRO: Gm  
VERSE:
IGmt's 66 and cloudy here this mornin'
IEb'll make a bet those clFouds will turn to rGmain
GmThe weather's rusted out the sign
And almost missed the turn
That'll tEbake me down to SaFunders Ferry LGmane
VERSE:
GmThe creekin' boards of the empty dock
Are the only sounds I hear
The sEbign on the catfish stFand says
"ClGmosed till spring"
VERSE:
SGmummer drown in the frozen lake
As the winter came to life
And nEbothing moves in SaFunders Ferry LGmane
NoEbthing moves in SaFunders Ferry LGmane
VERSE:
RGmaindrops mingle with the leaves
That tumble to the ground
As I fEbind my way to the sFpot
Where we once lGmay
VERSE:
BGmut the grass is dead
The life is gone
And the birds have flown away
It's Ebawful cold in SaFunders Ferry LGmane
EbAwful cold in SaFunders Ferry LGmane
BREAK:
EbThe gentle arms that hFeld me
And mEbade me want tomoFrrow now are, are gGmone
EbWe found so much coFmfort
In the wEbay we loved each Bbother
Then the Cangels came
As quietly as the dFawnGm  
VERSE:
StGmanding by the water
In an icy winter wind
I fEbind no present cFomfort for my pGmain
VERSE:
WGmith no gentle arms to hold me now
I know there's nothin' worse
Than a dEbay alone in SaFunders Ferry LGmane
EbA day alone in SaFunders Ferry LGmane
VERSE:
GmIt's 32, and raining here this evening
I'll Ebmake a bet that rFain will turn to sGmnow
IGmt's hard to see through the tears
And I almost missed the turn
That lEbeads away from SFaunders Ferry LGmane
That lEbeads away from SFaunders Ferry LGmane

SAUNDERS FERRY LANE

SAMMI SMITH

INTRO:

VERSE:

It's 66 and cloudy here this mornin'

Eb F Gm

I'll make a bet those clouds will turn to rain

The weather's rusted out the sign

And almost missed the turn

Eb F Gm

That'll take me down to Saunders Ferry Lane

VERSE:

The creekin' boards of the empty dock

Are the only sounds I hear

Eb F

The sign on the catfish stand says

"Closed till spring"

VERSE:

Summer drown in the frozen lake

As the winter came to life

Eb F Gm

And nothing moves in Saunders Ferry Lane

Eb F Gm

Nothing moves in Saunders Ferry Lane

VERSE:

Raindrops mingle with the leaves

That tumble to the ground

Eb F

As I find my way to the spot

Where we once lay

VERSE:

But the grass is dead

The life is gone

And the birds have flown away

Eb F Gm

It's awful cold in Saunders Ferry Lane

Eb F Gm

Awful cold in Saunders Ferry Lane

BREAK:

Eb F

The gentle arms that held me

Eb F Gm

And made me want tomorrow now are, are gone

Eb F

We found so much comfort

Eb Bb

In the way we loved each other

Then the angels came

F Gm

As quietly as the dawn

VERSE:

Standing by the water

In an icy winter wind

Eb F Gm

I find no present comfort for my pain

VERSE:

With no gentle arms to hold me now

I know there's nothin' worse

Eb F Gm

Than a day alone in Saunders Ferry Lane

Eb F Gm

A day alone in Saunders Ferry Lane

VERSE:

It's 32, and raining here this evening

Eb F Gm

I'll make a bet that rain will turn to snow

It's hard to see through the tears

And I almost missed the turn

Eb F Gm

That leads away from Saunders Ferry Lane

Eb F Gm

That leads away from Saunders Ferry Lane
