CSometimes at night Fwhen I'm all Calone
The sounds of the day fade G7away
CAlone in my room Fwith my Cmemories 
The winds of FyesterCday G7blow on Cme
I hear Fcountry music on the Cradio
The way that it was a long time G7ago
And the Csound of momma singing comes Fdrifting through the Ctrees 
When the winds of FyesterCday G7blow on Cme
I see a moon so bright over Fcotton fields of Cwhite
The fragrance of magnolias ride the G7breeze
And that Clittle two room school where I Flearned the Golden CRule
When the winds of FyesterCday G7blow on Cme
I see Fchildren at the old swimming Chole
And fishing on the river with an old cane G7pole
Each Cmemory is so dear each Fface is so Cclear
When the winds of FyesterCday G7blow on Cme
I can Fhear the choir sing Chow their voices ring
I remember the words to each G7song
COh and that old preacher man Fonce more sets my heart at Cease
When the winds of FyesterCday G7blow on Cme
When the winds of FyesterCday G7blow on Cme
