Steve Brooks - Walking With The Elders

CAPO: 4th Fret

INTRO: C F C

My head is back, my eyes are open
Looking in a line unbroken
Up to where the leaves are waving
Half the way from here to heaven
F Dm7
Walking with the elders
C
On a Carolina mountainside
F Dm7
I'm walking with the elders
F C
And their arms are open wide

Long before the dawn of science
God begot a race of giants
Cut to clear, cut to timber
Hidden here, a few have lingered
F Dm7
Walking with the elders
C
On a Carolina mountainside
F Dm7
I'm walking with the elders
F C
And they will not be denied

CHORUS:
G F
Carry on a conversation
C G
With an ancient generation
F
Though I cannot speak the language
C F G C
Still my soul can understand it

INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F Dm7 C

Plant a tree, seed a forest
Praise the ones that come before us
They will see the changing seasons
When I'm in the ground beneath them
F Dm7
Walking with the elders
C
On a Carolina mountainside
F Dm7
I'm walking with the elders
F C
And the elders will abide

CHORUS:
G F
Carry on a conversation
C G
With an ancient generation
F
Though I cannot speak the language
C F G C
Still my soul can understand it

INTERLUDE: C

N.C.
My head is back, my eyes are open
C N.C.
Looking in a line unbroken
C N.C.
Up to where the leaves are waving
C
Half the way from here to heaven
F Dm7
Walking with the elders
C
On a Carolina mountainside
F Dm7
I'm walking with the elders
F C
And the elders will abide
F Dm7
I'm walking with the elders
N.C. C
And the elders will abide
F C
Will abide____
