The Byrds were a popular American rock band formed in Los Angeles, California in 1964. They are considered one of the most important and influential bands of the 1960s.
Their music bridged the gaps between the socially and spiritually conscious folk music of Bob Dylan, the studio trickery of The Beach Boys, and the sardonic rock of The Beatles. Some of their trademark songs include pop versions of Bob Dylan's Mr. Tambourine Man and Pete Seeger’s Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything There Is a Season)

AEA Trail of troubles roads of battles ADA Paths of victory we shall walk AEA The trail is dusty and my road it might be rough ADA But the better roads are waiting and boys it ain't far off AEA I walked down to the river I turned my head up high ADA I saw the silver lining that was hangin in the sky AEA Trail of troubles roads of battles ADA Paths of victory we shall walk AEA The evening dusk was rollin I was walking down the track ADA There was a one way wind a blowing and it was blowing at my back AEA The evening train was rolling the hummin of it's wheels ADA My eyes they saw a better day as I looked across the fields AEA Trail of troubles roads of battles ADA Paths of victory we shall walk
