A                                           D
When the mornin' sun comes peepin' o'er the mountains
    E                         A
And nature's melody begins to play
  F#m                             Bm
I wonder how a song that seems to be so short and sweet
B7                             E
Could be as good again another day

[Verse 2]
A                                     D
Oh, I loved you with a passion hot as summer
       E                                 A
And I picture when you were as fresh as spring
   F#m                                        Bm
I held you when the autumn wind blew in the winter cold
     B7                                  E
And warmed you till the meadow turned to green

[Verse 3]
A                                       D
Now the evenin' sun is sinking, moving homeward
E                              A
As I bid another peaceful day goodbye
 F#m                                 Bm
Our home is on the south side of an old hill country town
 B7                              E
Nestled here beneath the Texas sky

[Verse 4]
A                                                 D
And when you touch my hand, I know that you still love me
E                                        A
And I know you know I'll always feel the same
  F#m                                Bm         
Till every season's day has come and gone and come and gone
E                                   A
And come and gone and come and gone again
