Rodney Crowell – Banks Of The Old Bandera (Guitar)

C                   G   C
On the banks of the old Bandera

      Am      G        C
where roams a barefoot child

Am        G      C          F
On Sunday golden evenings?. shortcuts

Dm7
Out along the high wire lines

G
Down the dusty road

C              G         C
The hills they wear blue bonnets

       Am     G      C
Like a pretty cotton gown

    Am     G          C         F
And summer rain falls down like honey

Dm7
Sweet magnolia blossoms grow

Gsus              G
And old men dance

Dm7                               C
Once we ran bare footed through a clover full of dew

Dm7                               C
Once we learned to play like lone Comanche?s running loose

C                   G              C
What it made it you feel like is a song

Am          G                  C
And what it feels like now has gone

C              G           C
I can hear the screen door slamming

      Am     G           C
Run a footer race to the creek

          Am  G            C        F
You could see clean to the bottom?? and deeper

Dm7
Just depends on how u look

Gsus          G
Maybe where u stand

Dm7                                 C
Monkey vines and swimming holes lay just around the bend

Dm7                                    C
The rope we used to swing on now hangs tattered in the wind

C               G              C
What it made it feel like is a song

Am      G                     C
What it feels like is now has gone

C               G              C
What it made it feel like is a song

Am G F
Unaccompanied guitar to finish
