Oh the dGancing and   G/F#the Emsinging and the A7music   A7/Gwhen they Fplayed

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

G G/F# Em A7 A7/G F

When the wagons leave the city for the forest and further on

G G/F# Em A7 C

Painted wagons of the morning, dusty roads where they've gone

G G/F# Em A7 A7/G F

Sometimes travellin' through the darkness, met the summer comin' home

G G/F# Em Em7 C A7 G G/F#

Fallen faces by the wayside, looked as if they might have known

[Chorus]

Em Bm11 Em Bm11

Oh the sun was in their eyes, and the desert was dry

C G Em A C

In the country towns, where their laughter sounds.

[Verse 2]

G G/F# Em A7 A7/G F

Oh the dancing and the singing and the music when they played

G G/F# Em A7 C

Oh the fires that they started along the road with no regrets

G G/F# Em

Sometimes they found it, sometimes they kept it

A7 A7/G F

Often lost it along the way

G G/F# Em Em7 C A7 G G/F#

Fought each other to possess it, sometimes died with the sun in their eyes.

[Chorus]

Em Bm11 Em Bm11

Oh the sun was in their eyes, and the desert was dry

C G Em A C

In the country towns, where their laughter sounds.
