Am D Am D
  Am                    D
Going through life the righteous way

    Am                 D  
The only way so the preacher would say

You put me on the Jericho Road

  Am                  D                         
Barefoot and smilin standing over here by the piano

Well I dreamed I heard that Whippoorwill sing

She sang my song and she called me my name

E
And I hung my head in shame.

      Am                             D

Your bougenvie is bloomed yea it never will

The lessons I remember and some that I forgot

are precious and pure now like one honeysuckle drop
