Four years of hard work!

This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

E C#m F#m7 B7
Three creaky wooden stairs those squeaky rocking chairs
G#7 C#m F#m
The well worn welcome mat the lattice vines
B7
The happy times

E C#7
All I want to do when the day is through
F#7
Is linger here on the front porch with you
B7 C#m
From the wicker swing while the night birds sing
F#7 B7
We'll watch the fireflies sparkin' do some sparkin' too
E C#7
How the hours fly As the moon drifts by
F#7
How sweet the air as we stare at the sight
E
Oh How I love to linger here like this
Bm C#7
Hold your hand and steal a kiss
F#7 B7 E
Or two on the front porch with you

E C#7
All I want to do when the day is through
F#7
Is linger here on the front porch with you
B7 C#m
From the wicker swing while the night birds sing
F#7 B7
We'll watch the fireflies sparkin' do some sparkin' too
some sparkin' too
E C#7
How the hours fly As the moon drifts by
F#7
How sweet the air as we stare at the sight
Sung slowly
E
Oh How I love to linger here like this
Bm C#7
Hold your hand and steal a kiss
F#7 B7 E
Or two on the front porch with you
