DAY ON THE SAND
RAILROAD EARTH
I've left out a lot of detail, so this is just the skeleton of the song… no
mistakes-mistakes that I'm aware of.
Capo on 6

[verse1]
C G/B D/A C D
Oh my love the long day unwinds
So many memories Underneath these pines
The house down the old road it still looks the same
But no one to greet us down the gravel lane
[chorus]
C G D Em
We don’t need to go Till you’re ready to go
I don’t need to know Till you want me to know
Let me sing you a song So you know where I’ll stand
C
(lots of nonchordtones in the melody)
With my hand in your hand
Em
Em C
Em C G/B
[verse2]
Oh my love sheath to unbind
So many knotted endings to unwind
A box full of letters A long time ago
A lifetime of love That you didn’t even know
[chorus repeats]
Em (noodling up top)
She’s sailing on
C D
Sailing on
[verse3]
A song and a story Upon land of prayer
The wind and the water The sun and the air
A day of redemption A day on the sand
A shell full of ash Let it fly from your hand
[chorus repeats]
She’s sailing on
Sailing on
