Biography:
“There's a song in there somewhere," sings Dave Gunning optimistically on his seventh album We're All Leaving, but the Pictou County, Nova Scotia performer is being far too modest.
Scoring three 2010 East Coast Music Award Nominations for Songwriter, Male Solo Recording and FACTOR Recording of the Year, and recently named as a Finalist in the Great American Song Contest and International Songwriting Competition for his song, Before The Morning Sun (co-written by James Keelaghan), Gunning is on the move.

Dave Gunning - Smith's Rock
CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: C Am F C Am F
C
There is wild and footprints feel/field
Am F
A good day in, come afternoon
G F
There's small reward for all I do
C F C
On this harvest ground
You stood by us in the midday sun
Am F
As I drew my breath through younger lungs
G F
Thinking I could be the only one
C
Could turn that ground
CHORUS:
Am G C
'Cause it's sunup to sundown
Am7 F Am
Cut the trees and burn the roots
G C G
Wait for the season to change
Am G C
'Cause that wind doesn't listen
Am7 F G7
And the rain won't talk
F C Am F C Am F
But someday they'll see my name upon that rock___
C
These passing years will never end
Am F
Though in time they're surely not my friend
G F
A thousand backs will break and bend
C F
Before you do
C
Eye to eye, we'll never see
Am F
And though it takes the best of me
G F
I'll be damned if I'll ever leave
C
Before my work is through
CHORUS:
Am G C
'Cause it's sunup to sundown
Am7 F Am
Cut the trees and burn the roots
G C G
Wait for the season to change

INSTRUMENTAL: Am G C F Am G C G
BRIDGE:
Dm7 Am
Lying cold and heavy fills my chest
F C F
Takes me over, carries me under
I swear I'll never rest
CHORUS:

'Cause it's sunup to sundown
Am7 F Am
Cut the trees and burn the roots
G C G
Wait for the season to change
Am G C
'Cause that wind doesn't listen
Am7 F G7
And the rain won't talk
G G7
But someday they'll see my name
F C F
Someday they'll see my name upon that rock___
