THE LOWLANDS - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (featuring Jaime Hanna and Jonathan McEuen)
Capo on 2
Bm G D
I'm headed for the lowlands would you please direct my way
A Bm
The train is leaving shortly there's no time for de-lay
Bm G D
She told me she'd be waiting I'm not so sure she is
A Bm
I heard that there's another man who claims that she is his
CHORUS:
Bm A Bm
The lowlands were my home when I was but a child
A Bm
they will be my deathbed when I've passed my time
Bm G D
I remember one summer day the clouds began to build
A Bm
We gathered the cattle that had scattered cross the fields
G D
Well it started to rain and continued several days
A Bm
The river over-flowed and the crops all went to waste
to chorus
Bm G D
You know that I'm no failure through my victories are few
A Bm
I'm trying my best but there's too much here to do
G D
That girl I love once told me I made her feel se-cure
A Bm
It's hard to think I've been replaced. Nothing does en-dure.
