The chord struc ture is correct, as is the key, but Ezra does play some rather interesting chords that are unintelligible to me!! E Summer is coming, catfish are jumping D A The willows are weeping up the river E Mandaddy's wagon comes rattling and dragging A B His magical route E He's bringing ghost stories and bright penny whistles D A White Chinese muzzles in tins of glory E D A E Look on the horizon and see the dust rolling down the road Chorus: B A E My name is Mandaddy and I roam these hills B A E I sing and I whistle and I'll cure your ills A C#m F# Oh Mandaddy, Oh Mandaddy's gonna cure your ills B E Mandaddy's gonna cure your ills E He walks like a farmer, talks like warm water D A Smells like tobacco and gun powder E He's bringing red garters and bright copper kettles A B and brown leather shoes E He says, "I remember when your folks was young'uns D A Laughing and running in Indian summer E D A E They'd watch the horizon and see the dust rolling down the road!" Chorus E Everything changes, it's only natural D A Nothing remains as it once started E This time next summer I may not be here, hear what I say E Children I love you, you make life worth living E A The rivers worth crossing the gifts worth giving E D A E Look on the horizon and see the dust rolling down the road Chorus transcribed by Erik Karlsson Stabnste@phoenix.phoenix.net
