            D                                                 G
I?ve got ripplin water to wake me, to the mornin my woman in love,

                              Bm                   A
And tall pine trees are are pointen us easily to heaven above.

 D                                            C                      G
Blue spruce flamin on the grate in the evenin, takes the chill a way fine,

Em                 B7                   E
Cut the telephone line the stories the same.

           D                                                            G
There?s a worn red chair by the window, that we found at a sale down the way,

                                     Bm                       A
When some old women said that they needed more room for the winter.

      D                                                  C                       G
But people like pullen out the stuffin when they sit down, and so it passes the time;

Em                 B7                    E
Cut the telephone line the stories the same.
CHORUS:
   A                               E                                    A
Oooooooh like a bubble on a windy day, start to flutter when i here ya say,

                                B
That you feel to good to go away

         E                A                                    E
And you make me feel fine, and you?ve made my world a warmer place,

                                    A                                    B
By the sparklin of your diamond face------on a frayed spot put a little lace

         E               B                E             B
And you make me feel fine, warm as the mountain sunshine,
E B E A--------E A G A On the edge of the snowline, in a meadow of columbiiiiiiiiiiines VERSE 2:
D                                                            G
Oh little Jennifer I?d give a penny for whatcha got on your mind,

                         Bm                     A
Seems  like most of the time your lyin there dreamin...but...

  D                                               C                      G
Maybe in your vision you?ll see how are mission is, slightly less than devine,
Em B7 E--------G A Cut the telephone line, the stories the same.
           D                                                               G
And now ripplin waters flow through pipes in the walls and it's keepin me warm,

                                  D                     A
And the closest I?ve been to my family for days is my music.

          D                                        C                   G
But the silent stare in the mornin? sky, is like hearin her callin my name

Em                     B7                       E
You cut the telephone line the story might--- change. CHORUS---------E A repeat END
