"Vanishing Breed"
The River of Time Album
[Verse]
G C
We're both the kind who can find peace of mind
G C
In the light of an old fireplace
G C D
Wrapped in a blanket talking the night away
G C
Watching snow falling, the lone wolf is calling
G C
Out into the endless space
G C D G
Cause there aren't many left like us these days
Em G C
Down where the city lights burn
Em G D
I know we'll never return
[Chorus]
G C G
Listen to the wind blow over the hills, the whispering pines
G C D
Everything is free and all that we see is yours and mine
G C G
Just you and me and this old log house is all that we need
G C D G
That's why they call us the vanishing breed
[Verse]
G C
Its good just knowing that our love is growing
G C
And we're gonna find a place
G C D
In a life we built with our own hands
G C
Like wild horses runnin out under the sun
G C
We're gonna find some space
G C D G
Cause there aren't many left like us these days
Em G C
God's greatest gift to you and me
Em G D
Is knowing how it feels to be free
[Chorus]
G C G
Listen to the wind blow over the hills, the whispering pines
G C D
Everything is free and all that we see is yours and mine
G C G
Just you and me and this old log house is all that we need
G C D G
That's why they call us the vanishing breed
