[Verse]
D G D
There's a tiny owl feather
A
In the puzzle over there
G
On the mantle by the laddle
D A
And my darlin' put it there.
G D
She says it's from the scary bird
G A
Was perched perchance to scare
D
The little hand that pets me every night
[Chorus]
D G D
Oh little cabin in the glen so green
G A
Prettiest little cabin that I ever have seen
D G D
My darlin' waits there for me
A
with her little tambourine
D
tappin' out the rhythm of the rain
G D
I can't go back 'cause I never left
A
This little cabin home
D
With a wrap around porch and a dog trot
A
And a well of granite stone
D
And an old wet dog all slobbered down
A
With the end of an old wet bone
D
Puffin' like a locomotive on an old freight train.
[Chorus]
D G D
Now I'm laying in this tanning bed
A
Dreamin' of my youth
D G D
The gangsta rap and the cowboy hat
A
just make me feel uncouth.
D G D
But a vision of my mother
A
Is a vision of truth
D
Hangin' out the wash so long ago
[Verse]
G D
Oh little cabin in the glen so green
A
Prettiest little cabin that I ever have seen
D G D
My darlin' waits there for me
A
with her little tambourine
G D
tappin' out the rhythm of the rain
G D
beatin' out the rhythm of the blues
G D
beatin' out the rhythm of the rain
A D
observin' the all time high water mark of the 1927 flood
G D
beatin' out the rhythm of the rain
