The Byrds fue un banda de rock estadounidense de mediados de la década de 1960 que fue pionera del Folk Rock, el rock psicodélico y el country rock, siendo considerados como la respuesta estadounidense a la invasión británica encabezada por los Beatles.
EL gérmen de los Byrds fue el trío folk acústico californiano The Jet Set de 1964, integrado por Roger McGuinn (nacido como Jim en Chicago, 1941), Gene Clark (Tipton, Misouri 1941) y David Crosby (Los Ángeles 1941).

The Byrds Your Gentle Way Of Loving Me written by Gary Paxton Gib Gilbreau
ABmD It's the humming of the engines on the Greyhound bus and trains ABmC#mE That keeps your memory on my mind and here with me ABmDA Many miles have come between us, cold nights on some roadside EA Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me ABmDA It's the thought of how you love me, how you treat me, how you thrill
me BmC#mE That clears my fogged-up mind to where I see ABmDA Some little girl as I walk by just looking at me sadly AEA Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me ED It's just your gentle ways of loving me EA It's just your gentle ways of loving me ABmDA It's the happiness I've never found with other loves that bothers BmC#mE And a mother saying how her child loves me ABmDA And times you never talked about those late evening hours EA Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me ED It's just your gentle ways of loving me EA It's just your gentle ways of loving me ED It's just your gentle ways of loving me EA It's just your gentle ways of loving me
