[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D Do you remember, jody baxter F#m7 When the whippoorwill sings G How you stole across the pasture D A To the little hidden spring? D D2/C# G/B Where you laid down by the water D G G/F# Em On a bed of spanish moss D Dsus4 D D2 And dreamed D When the wind was on the prairie F#m7 And the fire was in the stove G With the wood you had to carry D A From the corner of the grove D D2/C# G/B D And your daddy let you disappear G G/F# Em With all your fishing gear D Dsus4 D Into the cove
[Chorus]
Bm D A And it was good, good, good Bm A G But now it's gone, gone, gone Bm And there's a little boy A G Who's lost out in the woods A D Dsus4 D D2 Always looking for the fawn
[Verse 2]
D I remember, jody baxter F#m7 When I hid out in the corn G How the clouds were moving faster D A With the coming of the storm D D2/C# G/B And I knew that I had broken D G G/F# Em Something I could not repair D And I mourned D Because the field was green as eden F#m Then it withered into brown G In the middle of my grieving D A They came and cut it down D A/C# And I was sure that it was all my fault G A The day they mowed the garden D To the ground
[Chorus]
Bm D A And what was good, good, good Bm A G Was gone, gone, gone Bm And there's a little boy A G Who's lost out in the woods A D Always looking for the fawn
[Bridge]
G So come back to me D Please, come back to me Bm D Is there any way that we can A G Change the ending of this tragedy? D Asus4 A D Or does it have to be this way? D F#M7 G A D Dsus4 D Hey Hey Hey Hey
[Verse 3]
D I can see you, jody baxter F#m Now you're broken by the years G As you lie down in the aster D A And listen for the deer D D2/C# G/B And I'm a million miles away D G G/F# Em But I still pray the fawn can find me D Dsus4 D Here
[Chorus]
Bm D A 'Cause it was good, good, good Bm A G But now it's gone Bm And there's a little boy A G Who's lost out in the woods A D Always looking for the fawn Bm Yes I'm a little boy A G Who's lost out in the woods A D Always looking for the fawn D F#M7 G A D Dsus4 D Hey Hey Hey Hey
