Ricky Skaggs – Casting My Shadow In The Road (Guitar)

C                                                         F      G        C
There was a warm wind weaving throug the trees, it was an early breath of spring

       Am                 F                     G
Like a young bird soon to leave it's nest, I yearned to streatch my wings

           C                                      G                  Am
Though the tear drops fell like a morning rain, I knew that I had to go

      F                 C          G             C
I had always dreamed of casting my shadow in the road

G      C                                       F      G     C
I couldn't count the times I said goodbye to a city limits sign

         Am      G         F                    G
Or the countless sweet and gentle hearts in the towns I left behind

       C                                     G                   Am
Oh but passion rides on the prairie wind and peace in the winter snow

      F              C          G             C
And I still dream of casting my shadow in the road

C                        Bb            F        G    C
When the evening falls I often stop to rest my weary feet

                                               F                G
But when the morning sun begins to rise and iI feel the urge to leave

  Am            Dm                   F        G     Am C
A night of rest fans the flames that burn within my soul

  F                C          G             C
A burning need for casting my shadow in the road

C                        Bb            F        G    C
When the evening falls I often stop to rest my weary feet

                                               F                G
But when the morning sun begins to rise and iI feel the urge to leave

  Am            Dm                   F        G     Am C
A night of rest fans the flames that burn within my soul

  F                C          G             Am
A burning need for casting my shadow in the road

 F                 C          G             C
A burning need for casting my shadow in the road
